however with a little tricky aiming you can reduce that. With the car about 10 feet from a garage door or other flat vertical surface, aim your lights dead level. Then, raise your right (passenger) side up a half turn on the vertical aiming screw, and lower your left side by a full turn. You'll retain good output on the road and cut glare to other drivers.

I'm also considering possibly grabbing a set of eyelids and playing with their positioning to see if they can kinda create somewhat of a cutoff from the halogen lamps

^^ alll HID bulbs run at 35w. Take your pic as long as it's the correct bulb base type.

Can someone tell my why my two headlights dont look the same color? I just replaced both bulbs with 4300K HID, and one side looks slightly more bluish then the other side? Could it be the fogged up lenses? Should 4300K looks bluish at all?

i've seen this on volvo's, and it's usually a sign that the bulbs are about to go, but that wouldn't make sense since you just replaced them. Did you possibly put one of the old bulbs in by accident?

if not check your connections, make sure your ballasts are good, and see if your lenses really are yellowed out. 4300k should have the slightest tinge of pink/purple or blue around the edge, whereas 6000k will have more.

I have a XenonDepot 6000k HID kit in my MDX. The XD kit has been in use for over 2 years. Still going strong. Steve was very helpful.

I also just bought some 6000k bulbs from mobilehid for my car. It is too soon for any long term feedback but they work as advertised. Cliff is a cool guy.

I would not hesitate to recommend both.

i'll chime in on reliability as well. My xenonking 6000k pnp kit has about 7 straight months of use in New England's unpredictable weather (from single digit temps these last couple days, to snow, to heavy rains, all the way up to triple digit heat) and have yet to have even so much as a flicker. Plus, their customer service is awesome, and they will give you a discount as well if you shoot them an email. would highly recommend.

THe ones from mobilehid.com is 50 W, so you need to buy additonal harness or else you will burn your wirings,fuse, or the bulb itself.

check your headlight level maybe one is higher than the other.

oh, hm i see. well in that case don't buy those. lol. Those are probably intended for different ballasts. If you know for sure you have 35w ballasts, source a different bulb.

how, in THE hell, would your levelling make them look 2 different colors without being in projectors?

Yea I know you can adjust the lows and the fogs as well. Just never really wanted to mess with the adjustments. Maybe I'll give it a try.

Post up pics when you get the eyelids on.

Incorrect. They make bulbs specifically for 50w ballasts.

jcat_350
