Ok, so I finally go around to finishing them. Well 90%. I will wire the blue demon eye today. I was working on this til 9:30 last night. In the dark.

Thanks 2004v35!

Kingd Thanks!
and im sure you can do this too. I have never done anything like this before. I had a set of HID lights sitting around from my GF G and thought why not try it out. It not as hard as it looks. The biggest problem I encountered was the wiring. All in all if you take your time its doesnt seem so bad.

Thanks! The aiming I was able to do when on the car. I did that last week. I also was able to aim them off the car. I found that out after I aimed them on the car. So I aimed the bottom ones in my house. All you have to do is buy a power supply and plug them in. Then you are able to adjust the projectors as you see fit. Then mount them on the car to make sure they are good.
