yes, the lenses will be back on after they are aimmed to perfection. Right now the cutoff is pretty good, but i just want to make sure it is perfect before sealing them in.

Smart thing to do. Many retrofitters don't do this and have crooked cut offs.

I guess it's okay for testing purposes. You'll be much more satisfied with the results once the D2S bulbs are in since they're 3 times brighter.
