Cool Help with decorative headlights

From time-to-time I see the approx. 10-12 light LED surrounds (just guessing) on Wrangler headlights or bevels (like the BMW's).

I can't find any kits for this conversion. Are these cool-looking LED circles totally custom made from LED strips or is there a high-end reliable kit avaiable for an easy retro-fit? I saw a halo light kit available with a continuous circle halo effect around the headlight but, I think the individual lights in circle form look better. Also, the halo kits got some bad reviews from you Wrangler enthusiasts. Please feel free to comment.

Please help in directing me to find this circle kit or please guide me through the lighting conversion.

Thanks in advance for helping with this.

Check amazon.com for 7 inch headlights or visit oracle.com. only thing is if you buy some of these housings you have to get the H13 to H4 adapters. Happy hunting and good luck!.

Oracle makes the halo light.

Thanks for the suggestion but, I'm familiar with the halo light from Oracle. I'm looking for the circle of individual looking lights around the headlight.

I saw something like i'm looking for available from China import but, the $400 price tag and the mystery of the generic availability leaves me suspect.

Please give me some first-hand experience based on my search. Thanks again.

Ummm that sounds exactly like the halo lights. It's a circle of LEDs that go all around the headlight. Look on eBay.

Well! I gotta give you props for your persistence -- but -- NO -- the lights I'm looking for are not halo lights.

If you want to help please re-read my initial entry. The lighted circle is comprised of individual looking lights which form the circle. The Oracle halo is a continuous looking lighted surround.

I saw quite a few JK's with the lights I want so, there has to be an experienced JK lighting person out there who knows what I'm looking for. Where are you? Please help.

Go to HIDprojectors.com and play around with the options on the 7" light. They have lots of decorative options.

Guess I got confused about the design of the halos.

So you're looking for a "bead" string of individual lights that form a circle around the headlight? Never seen that before. Might look cool.

I guess I thought I was describing something that was easily understood. I can see I didn't make my description real clear.

Yes. What I've seen on some JK's are a circular beaded light effect which surrounds the solid color of the headlight.

After I post this comment I'm going to check out the suggestions from Cride and echoshotz.
