Funny story about that. I tried that spot originally for my ground and everything would work except the headlights would not light up. I figured it had to work and it had to be something in the wiring or headlights or bad ballast etc. Sent them back to Mike. He tested everything and sent them back and said everything tested out ok. So i tried the fender bolt as stated in the directions and low and behold they worked. so i tucked everything and made it look neat/factory and all you see is the wiring coming off the bolt on the fender about an inch and thats it. and mounted the ballasts against the inside of the bumpers and its been just over a week and no issues.

my bulb temp seems to be way off even though they're 5000k bulbs along side the light output as well. I'll switch my grounds ASAP!

looks better than mine lol. looks like i got one 8k and one 5k. doesnt bother me enough to switch them but it does strike on my list for something to fix eventually
are all ur lights connected the same? like same grounds and everything and did you make ur lights or did mike? reason i ask is because of the dremelling on the back of the lights.

mike made them.
what dremeling do you speak of?
the back of the headlight has to be dremmeled for the bulb to sit down far enough into the projector in order for the light output to be correct and in order for the 3 pronged adapter to screw into place that you slide a little paperclip looking thing through someholes holding the bulb in place. i'll swap up my grounds and see how that does me.
