you can adjust them fully like any light... (they have these at a local shop) and they are straight from japan.. Mad JDM Freshness. but they should be angled straight on... i am thinking the "left adjust problem" was the bulb wasn't fastened down correctly. we hooked these up into my car for a minute to see if they looked good. no pictures sorry guys. but they looked nice, just not what i'm lookin for. and i wanted chrome. But light pattern is nice, and it def looks hot... i live where it is very rainy and humid all the time, and it didn't fog in the 30 minutes they were on... they seem to be made very nicely.

Great Pictures!!! Thanks So Much! I am ordering mine today, as i broke the $hit out of my older projectors last night when i was trying to adjust them. Pictures came just in time, and put my mind at ease. these look much closer to OEM then the LED halos i broke.

Is it just the lighting or are the projectors really that blue/purple color? I think these lights look fantastic except for that.

I'm still thinking about getting them and throwing an HID kit in there. I wouldn't even bother with the halos, not a big fan. Are the high beams prewired? Has anyone already tried to put install HID kit in these lights? Just wondering if that could cause any issues.

I must say these look to be of good quality, at least better than the old projectors. Since day one I have had one of the lights dimmer than the other side. I have yet to figure it out. Looks like I will be getting some new lights, I swear I will throw the other ones away.

The projectors are blue/purple unlit. See my pics on p. 4 of this thread for some more pics.

Highs are prewired.

There is a sticker on each housing stating HIDs are 'not allowed'

I have to say that the lense on these seem to be as thick if not thicker than the ones on the 3LED Dual Halo Proj that everyone seems to have. We all know that HIDs work ok in those. Im sure the sticker is there for liability reasons only.

Yeah, I'll take my chances with HID. Techone says they can make a hybrid HID kit with 9006 bulbs but a ballast made to connect to the car's factory H4 wiring. It'll cost the high-beam functionality, but that's the setup I plan to go with.

if they melt, for $140 including shipping, you can always get another set if you like the look.

I don't see how they'd melt anyway, HID lights don't generate as much heat as halogens.
