What car did you put them in? EK Civic? If so, you'll need to fabricate some sort of glare shield. The Civic's headlight housings weren't meant for HID bulbs, so your beam pattern is going to suck ***, and honestly, even if you do make some glare shields, the beam pattern will probably only look 5% better. I'd suggest retrofitting in a set of BMW or Audi projector lenses into your housings.
