not to be an ass but ur car is about 4 ft from the wall. see what happens at 25ft +. im sure they look bad ass but if u want to really use them to their full potential get some projectors. im sure u did pay at least $300 and right now ur not gettin your $$$'s worth. looks nice! (pm me if u need parts, or have install ?'s ill be glad to help you out) maybe u dont care about beam pattern but look how much brighter they are

yea i was keeping up with your posts on the projector project, looks pretty damn sweet, but i thought of the projector project as too much work, don't know much about taking the headlights off, or doing any custom projects, probbaly would just mess things up, but if someone had a pair of projector headlights to sell i'd be down to buy em


i got my "new" Hella ballast, Osram 7000k HID bulbs, for about 400 bucks about a half year ago from a shop in san francisco, I could have gotten a better price online, but i was thinking that if I could just pay and pick it up, save me that much more time

the install wasn't that bad, like most ppl say it's finding a place to mount he ballast which took the most time, overall, if i had to do it again, it would be pretty quick,
