Just curious, but why Halo's and not HID? I was thinking of switching my 2012 to HID, is that maybe a bad idea?

All I know is with an 05-09 you have to remove the front valance to get the headlights out.

There is nothing wrong going with HID's, the only down fall is you mighty get flashed, or not notice a big improvement unless you get projector's put in....wether you get the headlights retro fitted or buy aftermarket headlights.
