When I installed my bulbs the direction said to placed the little bar(wire?) facing down on the bulb. on the drivers side I didnt cause I was having a hard time fitting it back in and lost my train of thought. What are the negitive effects from this?

 

Come on! like 10 people on this forum told me to install them like that and I want to know why? Is it worth me breaking my balls to reinstall them correctly?

 

Which bulbs are you talking about? How are they working? You could always PM one of the people that told you to do it and ask them why.

 

????? Please expound. Don't know what you're talking about....

 

The headlight low beam I replaced them with 8000k bulbs. Forgot to mention that, but do you know what I'm talking about. If your looking at the bulb there is the glass portion of it and there is some element looking thing that comes off of it. It looks like a peice of hard wire that is insulated. I guess that peice has to be faced down and after I installed it (which was a SOB) I forgot to align it and I was just wondering what are the down falls of of not facing them down. Thats all

he's talking about the HID bulbs and the pin thats connected to the bulb.....i did this once and the only problem that occured was the bulb was not sitting correctly and the light shot up in the air......maybe there are other reasons but thats the only problem i saw

 

Thank you. My lights kinda look like there going to the sides. I just didnt want to go through reinstalling them but looks like I'm gonna.
