Those of you with HID's

[Ldub]

I always try to keep everything original, so I'll probably try and find some unmolested dust boots to keep around in case I ever go back to standard bulbs.

Yeh...that'll happen...

I know, I know. I've heard nothing but "Once you go HID you'll NEVER go back" and I tend to agree. It's not like I'm ever going to sell Vicki so I don't know why I keep all the stock parts on hand; I just do.

To tell you the truth I haven't used the HID's since I let them warm up for the required ten minutes the day I installed them. It stays light so late around here that I haven't had a need for them yet. Maybe I'll do a midnight run tonight just to give them a workout.

wow!! these things rock.. super bright and look awesome, i went with the 6000k kit.. i find myself driving towards stores now just to catch the reflection in the window but now i do need to find bulbs to match that will fit in the stock housing.. my piaa W2s are pretty white but look yellowed in comparison to the hids

I LOVE these things. I took my first evening drive with the HID's and those things are rediculous. The road side signs are SO bright now that I almost need shades to tone them down. Super cool.

On a somewhat similar note; how are the lights supposed to be aimed? I've seen the aiming instructions in the manual, but I don't really have time now to check them before Moab. My lights seem to be aimed sort of up and to the right (passenger side). The cut off line on the road in front of me is nice and level so I know both lights are aimed at the same height. I would suppose that up and to the right would be the best way to aim them because you wouldn't blind oncoming drivers, and you would illuminat road side signs.

I'll check the light aim after Moab, but I wanted to get a quick opinion.

Yes mine are the same way and yes most auto lights are designed this way

actually mark, you should adjust yours slightly, due to the fact that your VX is lifted, and aftermarket lights like these have "spray" your going to be blinding a lot of people..

ill help you out in moab if you want
