New HID pics

6000k, got them from JW Motoring. The transaction went great, highly recommend.

This pic was taken while I was aiming them, so the lids are still off.

Thanks for the compliments.

Here are the HIDs I purchased:

They're just a basic conversion, nothing special involved in the install. I didn't even need the resistors, the headlights flip down when I turn em off if the engine is running.

Of course. You're comparing a $95 light kit to a $600+ kit

Not bad at all. I just soaked the threads with WD-40 where the screw adjust. Its pretty easy. I just finished adjusting them in the pic I posted. I have never adjusted my headlights using the "park in front of a wall" method. I adjust them until I like the light pattern and call it good.
