Question for the projector retrofitters here

Can someone tell me if HID bulb ground wire in projector housings are normally facing up or facing down when mounted?

The HID ground wire runs along side the HID glass bulb.

Thanks.

Just remember this;

"The ground is down"

It usually is facing downwards, the only projector I know of that requires the ground wire to be facing up is the RS6 Bixenon projector

Thanks for the reply. Yes...normally...the return wire is facing down. But I found this...for the H7 HID bulb...where is may face up or down in a projector housing.
