New HIDs in!
Thanks guys. I'm going to put the passenger side in today, and then tonight I'm going to aim them. I'll let you know how much they light up the road. I know some people worry about the light output past 6000k. I was very pleased with them!
light output dosnt get to much dimmer after 6K actually its 5300 is the brightest you can get, anything higher in the kelvin scale is actually dimmer. 8k is pretty "smurf" colored but not that bad, i have seen 12k on a daily driver....in reflectors... now thats bad.
people always say you must have projectors to use HIDs which is untrue... you wont blind people or cause an annoying glare if you dont aim the headlights up in the air... like everybody that lives around me does lol
does that clear what i was trying to say up ?

there will always be way more glare and useless light for HID's in reflectors housings as opposed to projectors where they belong.
True, projectors AIM the light futher and produce more visiblility.

Yeah. I've heard the same thing too. I'm going tomorrow night to my buddy's apartment. There are a lot of white walls where I can park my car in front of to aim. I'll take a picture then. To give you an idea though, the cutoff is kind of like a check mark. It's flat in the middle..then the sides shoot up.

Alright...so I was driving tonight with the new lights and on bumps I could see the light on the street move around too...like the light was moving. I know the light is a little loose inside...but the only movement it can do is spin around...I know for a fact that it can't come out. The bulb was just a little different in size so the clamp that holds the bulb down didn't fit perfect. Is this ok that the light moves? If not, what can I put in there to keep it still? Some kind of glue or something?

Anyone running HID's notice a drop in battery voltage at idle?
Looks good bro. Ur planning on putting HID on the fogs.
true, everyone here has HID on there stock headlights from trucks to cars and doesnt blind me. They just have to be aimed properly
very nice set up.
