This has been a long time comin'! It may be a slow process because of how busy my schedule is right now and it being winter and me not having a heated garage....but I'll keep this thread updated slowly but surely.
First off, I wanted to get some photos for my own documentation on how terrible "drop-in HID's" are when compared to a true projector HID setup. Currently I have drop-ins on my T4R.
Drop-In HID specs:
- Morimoto 3Five Ballasts (Gen. 1)
- 4300K "Bi-Xenon" H4 bulbs (have a metal cover that is activated by a solenoid to change between HI and LO.)
- TRS H4 wiring harness (standard)
Light Output: (the photos have not been touched up at all, in order of consistency)
LO beams - the left headlight has been adjusted slightly lower than the right so help eliminate blinding to oncoming traffic. But the difference is minimal. How can anyone argue that when these are "aimed correctly" they don't scatter light EVERYWHERE.
