Default home made clear corners?

hey i have 2004 white ss and im thinking about getting red angel eyes for it ( as far as i know there's no kit for 6th gen halos but if anyone has found one lemme know) but the yellow parking lights will mess up the look of the halos so i want a clear corner look http://chevroletforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=14515

do you think this would work? also any tips on angel eyes would be greatly appreciated

Ok well I took apart my stock headlights, and the reflector piece is practically molded into the clear plastic, I tried for a while to get it out with no luck. I say go for the halos, but on the corners Im not sure, a chrome bulb would really help the look though.

since you've seen the headlight cracked open do you think i could even fit a halo around the high beams?

Yea but I dont like how it looks because the headlight is such an odd shape. If you somehow got projectors fitted and then stuck in halos, then yes. I mean mabye they would look good but Im not gonna do halos and audi strips.

so i found a dealer who is willing to make the angel eyes for a custom size but since i havent opened up my headlight up yet idk what sizes i should get (one for the brights and one for the low beams) if anyone has an opened up headlight or a reflector laying around that they could measure the diameter for me that would be great. or any other advice on how i could figure out the sizing would be great to

Measure the front of the headlight and subtract a little bit. I have no measurments. Just get a junkyard headlight and give it to the dealer.
