mounted like this, it seems to be right-side-up, but im not sure if the concaved glass projector lense inverts the image like a microscope, which means i would have to mount the metal cutoff shield up-side-down in order to get the proper cutoff. someone PLEASE help me with this, i need to drive 6 hours tonight and i need to get this fixed.. thanks

the picture was describing the metal cutoff shield that goes in between the bulb and the projector lense... i just finished taking them off and reversing them, it works now, this means that the projector lense does invert the image like a microscope and in order to get a stepped cutoff line on top you have to put the stepped portion of the shield on the bottom... its tough to explain but if anyone goes to do this mod he will understand better. thanks
