Default H.I.D question....

First i just want to apologize because i'm horrible at explaining so bear with me...

Ok so i recently just purchased a HID kit from Cliffud...which are pretty cool and had great service. So here is my question:

1) does it matter if the passenger bulb screws in the same way as the driver side bulb and vice versa? because i've noticed that the "wire" under the bulb on the driver side is not positioned the same as the passenger side. the passenger side twists all the way so that the handel (the part where you can hold to put the bulb into the car) that connects to the bulb is completely vertical. However, the driver side is more slanted.

Anyone else that has mobile HID have this problem? does everyone's screw in the same? Thanks in advance for the help!

um, its a standard size. put your stockers back in. if they do it, then your hid's will do it. if they dont, you missed a tap..

the bulbs usually have only one way to fit in. i have an operatic set and i think mine are like that too (ill check later).

thanks guys for the responses. i was just wondering if it mattered because i feel that my driver side glares slightly differently than my passenger side.

also keep in mind that they are in reflectors, as such there are many variables (angle of installation, dirt on the headlight, etc) that could contribute to a diffrence in the beams.
