jdm hid help (pics inside)
sup well i just installed my jdm hid headlights today. i checked out the cutoff line and to me it looks horrible, i used a philip screwdriver to try bring the projector up and down to line it up but i have no idea what should i do? Also the passengers side looks a little yellower than the drivers what could be the problem and how can i fix both of these problems. any help would be great thanks


i dont like how its crisscrossing it shouldnt be like this correct?

You've got Right Hand Drive headlights, so the step is going to be reversed from Left hand drive projectors...
LHD: ___/""""
RHD: """"\___
The main thing you want from your projectors is a flat output or ___/""""___/"""" or in your case """"\___""""\___, the problem is that the cut off is allowing more light up towards on coming traffic which means unhappy people if your headlights are aimed too high....
Also it looks like your driverside projector is rotated about five degree's clock wise... As for the output, if the bulbs are the ones that came with the projectors than I'd say the driverside bulb is newer and hasn't color shifted (new HID bulbs of 4100K~4300K are slightly yellow tinged till around I think 100 hours and then they color shift to a pure white).

The rotation of the Drivers side headlight is off. I dont know how that is possbile because it's not a retrofit, but looks like you are going to have to pull the headlight apart and check it out.
