Yeap, I still have and use the factory housing

 

that cutoff is pretty much perfect.

Thanks

In my own opinion it is like 95% perfect

 

they need to be adjusted.....

your beams should flow perfect together. The passenger side actually seems much lower than the driver side which in most cases should be the other way around.

Has anyone had melting issues? I find that with my retro they seem twice as bright but half as hot. I'm pretty sure that once running, they consume only about 35watts each compared to 80-100watts for the halogens.

Gratuitous shot:

Well Jon, the driver's side is too high. Just look at the beam on the floor for the passeger side, it lights up the road.

Now who has the chart that shows how to adjust headlights?

It is hard to tell IMO... both light up the road pretty equally, but the drivers side should come down. It should never be higher than the passenger side, well unless you're driving in a country on the left hand side of the road

 

Pictures and adjusting headlights... One thing that does not work

I couldn't agree more... it is very hard to comment on without being there in front of them. Either way though... he will know very quickly if he is annoying on-coming traffic. I know i was on the way to finding a wall that i could properly adjust mine

 

Looks very nice.

Yeah, thanks for pointing that out. The passenger side is little lower indeed. It does not bother me and I actually had a buddy of mine drive in front of me and he said that it didn't bother him either.
However I will try to adjust them (I will try to make them perfect this time) this weekend

 

j/w do ppl constantly high beam you because they think they are your high beams? used to f#ck some ppl up when i would high beam them on top of the hid's back
