06 upgraded lights arrived today - Concern

Hey guys ,

so i ordered the 06 upgraded lights and they came today, i have a few questions and concerns. both of the lights have what it looks like an edge/ scratch on the inside that curves dow from one side to the other, is that normal? im guessing yes because its the same on both of them. Second, under the first lamp and on top of the second one theres like a wavey plate, when i opened the box it was like twisted out of place, but after a light shake and moving around it looks like it went into place, i think its supposed to clip down into the holes but im not sure if its secure. I just wanted to make sure that everything was fine before i took them to the body shop to install. Please advise

That line going across is normal. No idea what it's for, personally, but.. There it is lol. Enjoy the projectors :-D Truly wonderful invention when compared with non-projector headlights.

If you liked your eyelids of course, make sure you use 3M double sided adhesive and only apply to the tips 1" back. (trim to fit) Trial fit them before and know exactly where they go before applying....Gary
