about that, i have heard of HIDs sometimes not pointing the correct way like OEM bulbs do. Ive also seen the pics where you can tell one points higher up than the other and such. Is there a reason for this other than the headlight assembly being screwed? Jay-M or anyone else?


The reason is because it's a cutoff behind a projector lamp. From the front of your headlight, 1/2 is light 1/2 is shadow. They just do that where the light is cut off. Because it's a projector, it bends the light slightly. Different wavelengths of light can travel differently on the edges of a shadow.

Mine have an area about 1CM large where they change color from a distance of about 45 feet projected on a wall.

here is a pic of how 6000k looks from the inside of the car. BTW this is a H7/HB2 HI/LO 6000k, the car is a 1995 Mercedes Benz C220.

That's not 6000K. That's 8K-10K. You can tell because of how blue it is. 6K is pure white, like a white LED. That's blue. Sometimes they mislabel the kits because you can pull the bulbs out and use them in other kits.






Kelvin is an actual scale. It's not disputable. It can be whiter or more monochromatic, but regardless, 6,000 is nearly white light. Not blue. Redzman's are ever-so-slightly blue and he has 6,300K.

Those last pics you posted looked 6000k ish. The camera must have just messed with the other one. Maybe the tinted windows while being in the car did something too.

I like the looks of these lights. Is there any chance of just picking it up one day instead of you shipping it? Can I also pay you the day of? I can fly over when ever and meet up with you to get the kit. I live Calgary and it's no trouble for me at all to fly over.
