[QUOTE=CobaltSS 16;1828946]I'm liking these lights a lot. Might pick up a set of black ones.
These lights don't come aimed?[/QUOTE

You will have to do some aiming. If your luck maybe not. I think I had to re-aim my passenger because I adjusted the bracket the lights screw into to get mine to seat properly. I only had to adjust the vertical on my passenger side and nothing else.

cheers

Yes. Those are the lights it came with. I just switched them out for PIAA 4000k bulbs though.

I just noticed i have no DRLs anymore. I thought i remembered everything bein on durin the day. Now i just noticed, nothin is on durin the day unless i turn on my fogs, which turns on my halos, leds, and turn signals. I like it this way a lot more but i hate that the turn signals are always on.

I took my DRL fuse out a long time ago, so if I want any sort of DRL's I have to turn on my fogs with the halos and running lights.

That is possible. You don't need them anyways.

Can anyone help me out a lil....when its dark outside and I turn on my car, the headlights should automatically come on like everyone else's....well since i ran an HID with relay only the right headlight comes on. So to solve the 1st thing i do when i get in the car is to turn on the parking lights, which keeps the headlights off while turning on the car. Then I turn the car on and then rotate the wand all the way forward to turn on the HIDs.....is there anyway to keep my auto lights and get both headlights to come on? Or is that just something I have to live with now that I have HIDs?

You should not have the DRL's on when using HID's, they will shorten the life of your ballast and your bulbs. Best thing to do is remove the DRL fuse.

VS2 has better output, but a shitty cutoff compared to VS1, IMO.

I think I solved the fogging issue using DLP's hair dryer idea. We have had temp and humidity fluctuations here and I have no fogging at all. I am going to wash the car so we will see then.

Sweet....I think they just need time to acclimatize to your locations weather. You've got to remember that they have those bigg rubber caps on the back and they are not a perfect seal like our stockers.

when paired with hids which is the best projector? the first version or the ccfl?
also where can each be purchased with an hid kit?

i saw the first version on ebay with an hid kit and that setup was going to be over 300 bucks after shipping

The first version has the better cutoff then the second set. But as for light output, they are both good.
