Rep Power: 282 What a difference!!!
Well, I had h1 4,500k HID's in my halo projectors, and as you all know, was not really all that good. So here are some "before" pics
before
and now, here are the after pics of 5000k in my OEM housing. Thanks to impulse for helping me get new bulbs, he took care of his customer . Thanks again bro!
lighting up the block, at least 50yards away
im soooo happy with the turn out. I think i just gotta adjust the headlights and point'em a lil more towards the ground. Besides that, im luvin it, well worth it .

Rep Power: 377 dont mean to thread hijack but since finding a cutoff point in the oem housing is pretty hard, how should i adjust them? should i just try to find a "happy middle" where it lights up the road and not to much into on coming traffics face's? cuz i thought i read somewhere that getting them aimed correctly is near impossible without a HID housing.

Rep Power: 787 Ya happy middle. Park on a level surface and continue walking away from the car to see what the headlights look like to other drivers. If you can look at them and not see alot of glare, they should be good.

Rep Power: 787 The projectors just suck. I think there's even a label on the back that says NO HID lol. Get some tyc or something.Some ricer has those with blue hid and it looks like a big ball of light coming at you. Crazy glare and aimed high.

Rep Power: 428 I have a question about this kit, when everyone installed them, were you able to put the stock weather piece all the way back on the back of the headlights, or did they sit kinda off them because of the wires? I ask because my old kit when they installed the bulbs, they couldnt get the weather piece back on the back of the headlight very well because of the wires and I think it caused moisture to get into them. Let me know.
