Thanks for the tracking number, Mike. You should have a set of fresh donor OEM housing by end-of-business today.

alright got that.
now im confused because theres the blue plug that comes from the headlight harness off the retro but theres only one blue plug that is from the relay.
does that mean one of the blue connectors on the headlight stays unplugged? or am i missing something.

Plug-N-Play. Leave blue plug disconnected on passanger side.

Now i've seen a few different post of 4th gens with hids and an "OK"ish cutoff. Does anyone have any output shot of the NEW kit that Mike is now selling? or a TRS output shot? I was in on the first GB for projectors and i wasn't too happy with the way the cutoff line was. I just wanted to see the current projector cutoff.

The directions tell you to either bend the prongs to get the screws to fit or dremal some of the plastic to get the bracket to sit all the way.

Yes, dremal the plastic at the top and bottom so it fits in there or bend the prongs down so the screws fit. Only need 2 screws halfway in and that peice isnt moving.

Yeah dude, I'd much rather wait for a good product than get a crappy one tomorrow just to have.

My 3rd gens actually have more color at the cutoff than my Morimotos. Of course the Mini's can be color modded, and they more than make up for it by being bi-xenon, much crisper cutoff, wider beam, etc.
