Man after driving with these lights for a while, it seems I do need to point them down just a tad bit. On the highway, the older people who drive with their high beams on all the time seem to flash at me. Otherwise it really helps me see better when i'm on the road. I can see the deer on the side of the road before I get close to them. Which is a plus here in Texas. Deers are everywhere.

My passenger side seems to have this huge glare up on the top where it cuts off. I'll have to get a picture of it but dang it's like a bigass flame or something. But on the driver's side it doesn't.

I also notice that at night when driving, the darker area of the street doesn't get lit up as much as the lighter part of the road. Curbs light up better. Anything in light color lights up better. Sometimes it looks brighter on the left side of the street, other times, it's bright on the right. It's wierd. but I'm really glad I went with 6000K or else it would be worste. People and friends really like the color and how bright they are at night.

alright guys i ran into a problem with my kit. the kit i have is not a plug and play kit. it has spade connectors at the end. for some reason me and my boy tried to hook it up to the ballast and everything and we try to turn the headlights on all we get is light flickering rapidly. when we first tried it the headlight stayed lit for about a second. we don't know what could be the problem. we thought it might have not been getting enough power to it but i dont think thats the case. can anyone help me?
