There's one of the Cobra doing it in the thread i posted.

He points it against the wall with the HID's in his stock headlights and then once again with the TL projectors.

Difference is amazing

that just seems like way too much work and really not even worth it IMO. you just run the chance of having more leaks and even more problems. i think i'll just stick with the stock housings.

now... to sort out all the bs that has been said... i have had multiple people ride in front of me and come head on at me to make sure that there isnt glare.... and most of the time the "glare" is from joe ricer not properly aiming his lights... that one picture w/ the glare is because you can see the bulb from that angle, it does that even with stock sylvanias and silverstars too... i believe all but one of the pictures of my car backed upto the loading dock are with lowbeams on. yes the 6000k kit does have a slight blue tint to it and i thought it would bother me but i actually like it. its just enough to make things look very clear. i have also found that the bulbs that i recieved in the kit are actually in the correct positions and the bi-xenon effect works great. great cutoff line, actually BETTER than stock, and when i hit the highbeams it is a controlled change and places the light in a usuable area...

also i drive around a fair amount in areas known to have lots of cops and i also go out to local car gatherings in which cops usually look for anything and i havent had any problems because they are aimed properly and are not offensive, i was told my a friend, who happens to have a lowerd 96GT, that it looked like a car with slightly blue headlights was coming up behind him and that it caused him no problems while he was in front of me... only when i hit the highbeams does it turn into the holy inferno of hell...


this HID kit isnt comparable to any other ive seen... one other guy that comes out has a mineral grey Faleen and has the 8000k kit from somwhere else, and it throws light everywhere and looks completely retarded...

You are still missing the biggest part of the system which is the HID projector lens which directs the HID light with a sharp cutoff.

I've seen this kit in person and i can attest to its "viewability".

I had my car (with STOCK headlights and bulbs) beside his. I turned my highbeams on and he turned on his low beams. You couldn't even tell my lights were on. I then turned mine off, and the only change in light output was you no longer saw the yellow mark on the ground from my lights.

THEY ARE THAT GOOD!

Also, i've had him driving behind me, beside me and towards me and experience NO BLINDING WHAT SO EVER!

The cutoff line is PERFECTLY FINE! with the stock headlight housings.

But that is only my opinion. But i plan on ordering a set of these ASAP.

the HID kit you showed is the Honda S2000 kit NOT the TL that everyone is having an orgasm over... also you cant expect a razor cut off when you are using a reflector instead of a projector... AND DAMNIT I WANT THE LAST COOKIE!

also did you look at the wide picture i took? is that not better than the horribly poor excuse for a headlight that ford supplys with it? and for only 300 bucks?

It all comes down to how little you care about the other driver's on the road i guess.
