nice style

 

Finally, everything is done and wired together. Nakioki- thanks for the help, but mine worked out a little differently.
First i tried connecting the white aftermarket wires to the white stock wires and got nothing. So i attached one of the black wires to the green just to see if i got any response. the other three black were still grounded to the frame by a bolt. Once the black hit the green, everything lit up except for the one halo (the one with its black wire connected to the green)
The next thing i noticed, was that in the process, the white wire had come apart and was no longer connected to anything. Just for kicks i touched the white wire to the green and everything lit up brighter.
I regrounded the black wire with the others on the frame and connected all of the white wires to the green stock wire and voila- everything works. I promise i will take pics of everything as soon as i get a chance, maybe tonight. I just don't like turning on and off the HID so i'll take the pics when i'm already using them for driving.
Not the easiest install i've ever done and i will admit that the right headlight does have issues with spacing which i will take pics of- but unless your up close you cannot notice it.
All in all i am happy and plan to keep them on for a long time. first comment- "the car looks like it has *****"

 

thats good to know now for the pics dammit! lol

More and better pics will be posted at night (probably not tonight its thunderstorming like the apocolypse here)

 

EEeewwww... the eyelids are too big, they should just copied the stock eyelids.

 

.....Lets put it this way........they both stock....and these suck....but if I were to pick between the two.....I would get these...

 

So what were you saying about the nipple shaving definately fixing the cuttoff? Those have got to be the bluest bulbs yet btw.

 

that's 8k...

give em a break guys, atleast the dark spot isnt that big. good pic btw dude... you shud show us how it looks like on the road...

 

yeah the dark spot in the center isnt that big but he's also like a foot away from the wall. arent u spose to back up 20 ft or sumthing? at that range that dark spot might get a lil big. and i still fail to see that that a black nipple can change the outcome that much over a blue or silver nipple. i think its got alot more to do with the fact that maybe these lights just dont flood the light perfectly as they should. lets not blame the bulbs. they've worked in plenty cars for decades! that nipple wouldnt cause all those hot spot rings and dark areas between them. lets be real.

UMNITZA! stiiiiiiiiill waiting. nobody has put the black projectors from Dynasty Auto on yet?

 

I agree. It wasn't that noticable on a silver or light color car, but on a FM or BSP those things stick out. They realy draw alot of attention and make the car look weird.

 

heheh i guess it wasnt that noticeable on my car...


atleast be 15ft away from the wall to test out the car.. I remember it says that on the manual on how to adjust the headlight. Just hope that nipple doesnt get big

 

Just to be clear i don't think i ever said shaving the nipple helps the hotspot. What i said was shaving the nipple helps the light fit properly and therefore the better positioning helps the hotspot. I realize it was close to the wall, but that was the first day and i was just taking pics of things. It finally stopped raining, so tonight hopefully i'll be able to take some more pics and show you guys what it looks like on the road.
As far as the lights- yes they are 8k but the color in the picture does not ring true at all. In real life they are more of a bluish purple not dead blue like they appear in the picture. They eyebrow is a little big, but that's because there are two strips that get lit up for the turn signal. IMO the turn signal eyebrow is hot. I hope the pictures help people when deciding whether or not to get these headlights. I'm open to all comments and/or PMs.

 

the spot is on you mspecht hehe...


just wait til u break in the HID.. itll become more blue. and lucky you guys get rain there!! grrr its sooo HOOOTTT here hahah

Wicked headlamps!

Me likes.

 

*turns on the fans in my office... heheh

i know this is off topic..

Driving up to SF today yey!!

 

Here are the images that were dropped from my previous post.
Unfortunately it was raining again last night so i couldn't get you guys some pics but i was driving and the lights
are pretty good, they do need to be adjusted a little bit and i do need to finish shaving the nipples completely.
Whether i get to that or not before the next night it isn't raining i will take pics. Enjoy

 

hm? didnt block the license plate number on old post hm? ooOoo i know it^^

 

In my own pure opinion, cause that is the purpose of the forum: rice.

 

yeah since those damn bmw's are all riced out also considering their headlights are very similar.
