2008 tC Projector Head Lights (update pics! 56k ehh maybe)
Thanks to Josh and Ken for the quick ship/price on these bad boys... I should have them in tonight with an 8k H11 HID setup as well... good looking out for us.. now the question.. do I bake them open and swap out a clear sidemarker? or just leave it

I just installed my 08 headlights with some 4300k hids over the weekend and i'm loving them! Thanks josh n trd sparks! i bent down the metal tab for the squirrel spotters and got a pretty decent cutoff. There's still a little bit of glare but when i drove behind my friend he didn't notice any glare.




my driveway is kinda slanted but i think u get the idea.
The projectors do make the hids seem bluer and my camera made it even more blue.

6000k shouldn't be too blue - remember that photos have a funny way of color correcting sometimes. Above 6000k i'd agree, but I think 6000k is a very white look - it's also the factory temp of many higher end applications.
Thanks for the pics with the tabs bent down. I don't want to go the JB Weld route, but I don't want to blind people - that seems to be a pretty good middle ground.
