Default feedback on my hids !!

i must say i love the color but the first thing i noticed with my 8k hid light is that its light span is much wider of a span than stock but its straight out distance is terrible and u cant adjust the bulb itself cause it only sits in the light one way!!! or can they be adjusted ????

there is a way to adjust the entire headlight housing, it's in the manual somewhere.

no... thats HID's nature. thats why most of HID kit providers recommend using a projector light.

Where did everyone put their ballast? Also did you plug the bulb leads into the stock connector or did you cut it off? My stock connector seems a little loose when i plug the leads from the ddm tuning kit into it. 3k left, 5 or 6k right, can't remember. I see what you mean about cutting the corners off the plastic piece that goes on the back of the bulb.

Moses, your bulb is sitting in there straight, right? You cut the corners off the plastic piece that pushes on the back of the bulb?
