does anyone have a pic of this..

i bought the third gen projectors and when i put hids in em, make everything sucked at life.

i've tried to align them but i'm having issues.

i'd really appreciate the help.

That looks like a good alignment to me. If youre talking about the flare-ups then you need to do the anti-glare mod

Looks right... is it too low? too high?
to properly aim them you bring the car up to a wall make marks where the center off the low beam is.
then make a mark 3 inches below that
back the car up 20ft and the align the lights till the cutoff is level with the 2nd mark.

A three inch drop in the beam pattern over 20 feet will basically aim the lights at the ground and you won't see very far at all. Two inch drop over 25 feet is the norm, but you can tinker with it to get them good without blinding people.
