Look at the image I attached, the one on the left is an HID bulb, the one on the right is a standard halogen, see any difference??

Read that link, or if you're too lazy, I'll quote the important part for you...
So yeah, a half assed, possibly dangerous, and illegal. Yeah, I doubt he will get pulled over for it, but it is still annoying as fuck when someone like him pulls up behind me and blinds the shit out of me even though "Its all good, I gotz tyte eyebrows on my headlights, lol!!"
BTW, maybe do a little bit of research before trying to sound like you know what you are talking about, everything I found came from common automotive knowledge, and 5 seconds of google searching. |
In your opinion, it may be a half assed install, but it's just that: your opinion. I do agree that there are better ways to do the HID conversion, but I don't see a problem with doing it this way. If they're being manufactured to be installed this way, then I don't see a problem with it. I spent a good bit of time reading that article you posted a link to, and a few other articles he wrote. Yes there is a little difference in beam pattern, but I don't think it would hinder the performance of the headlights, considering there is more light output.
BTW, I wasn't trying to call you out, so there's no need to get all defensive.
