I'm on the fence on this as well (for an 08).
Chris, my main concern, as i have seen these on other cars is the fact that they heat up, that is the bulbs put out a LOT of heat. I wanted to do this on Sue's other leggy, but held off since my friend installed a few and said they melted the headlight, housing, and fused wires together. But if times have changed since 2006, which I'm hoping they have, these would look hella sexy on any leggy, (but esp. 08's- hey I'm kinda biased...
) even other subies.

These can be wired to turn on with your fogs or parking lights.

I, personally, think that halos really only belong on BMWs.
These were the original cars to come out with halos from the manufacturer and only seem to look "right" on BMWs to me.
But like my vote... it's your car... do what you want.

It doesn't sound like it will be a significant discount. They did give me a code to enter when ordering so that you'll get charged $10 for shipping... I didn't ask what the shipping method was (and more importantly, if it included insurance since these are rather fragile).
I'll try & get more info...
