Installed my Light Cannons
Thanks to forum member DNAST1, he got me setup with his brand new unused Radioflyer Light Cannons with Halo Rings, on a crazy deal. He had the ACA's already installed in his car and wanted to sell them.
I picked them up and finally got the opportunity to install them. Thank you to George for responding to my early email this morning for the link to the instructions. One of the Halo Rings is defective and he is also taking great care of me on the replacement as well.
Here are a few pics from my iPhone. I cannot wait to drive it tonight.
Also replaced my bad eBay switchbacks with LED tower ambers in my DEPO clears
5000K 55W HID lows
One bum Halo Ring
Also threw in my Z06 screen that I also got from another forum member.
Update night shots:
halos
and my 7W 5Q CREE LED reverse lamps, awesome
Thanks for looking, and George THANK YOU for a killer product.

Those look great. Have to put out much better light than the stock units.

Thankin you. 
I had my eyes out for a set of ACA's due to the cost of these, but when these popped up a couple weeks ago I took the opportunity.

Nice...but I never understood the benefits vs the ACAs, if a person already has ACAs installed....I love mine and they are more than adequate at night coupled with my HID fogs which I have aimed up and to the sides. Can you comment?

Sure can. I had ACA's in my last FRC and the had that horrible "jiggle" over bumps and expansion joints. You could modify them to mount them more solid, but it had to do with the housing design. The way George puts these together is far more solid and eliminates that issue. He also uses HELLA projectors and high beams, which are much higher quality than the ACA's.

You are comparing your Light Cannons to the original ACAs and I can clearly see what you mean. It would be really interesting a comparison against the Radioflyer-modified Bi-Xenon ACAs.
Could you post a picture or PM me the link?
