New Style Projos and HIDs = Pics!

Alright guys i took some pics of my 6k hids to show you guys how much they really light up....come to think of it, I haven't used my high beams yet lol anyways on to the pics. I will also update you with a video I took, but its taking forever to upload. BTW I know my passenger headlight needs to be brought up a lil.

yea but only when you are looking at the car...the higher the number with hids, the less light output you get. So 4,300k is OEM....10,000k is actually more dull and blue and prly not much better than our stock halogen bulbs

no i don't doubt that 10,000k was bright, cuz it prly is extremely bright when looking at it, as is mine...but if u were in the car driving you wouldn't wanna have 10,000k unless you are just using them for looks

Why do think the passenger side needs to be brought up ? Unless your car is parked on a incline I think the driverside looks way high . Not unless its just an illusion because the car is parked so far away (?) . It looks as if the driverside cut off ( the lower portion before it zigs up )is like 5 ft off the ground surface . The level the passenger side is sitting at looks more where the driverside should be sitting too . If u wanna check it , the US DOT spec is ....center of the beam should be 2" lower than the center of the headlamp(actual center of the projector lens in your case) . Car should be on level ground , 25 ft away from lighter colored flat wall . With the E-code projectors u have , they can be adjusted a bit higher than 2" below the center of the projector lens , but not above the centerline .

Like I said man , I could be wrong ...but your lights look awefully high from those pics .

i'll say it again, b/c i have had both projectors....these kick ass with HIDs....you can really see a lot more than I could with the old projectors....yes the cutoff line sucks....but who cares that the cutoff looks like as long as they are functional. YES we get it the cutoff blows so damn give it a rest...so much hate on this site
