Do you have the return lead shadow in your beam?

in your headlight, is the return lead to the top or the bottom of the housing?

yeah I do.
and thats basically exactly how they will look if you dont grind a slot
its because the bulb isnt sitting at the right orientation within the projector housing.

how good was your grind job? does it give the return lead room to really sit down in it so its not pressing the bulb off a little?
