My projectors are kinda wobbly and not secure.... when the hood is up, I can take the light and wobble it back and forth... Anyone else's lights like this?

So will there be another gb down the road? I'll be broke for months yet, but I'm curious.

My projectors are the same, Kris. I thought I installed them wrong when they did that. It looks like its the rubber thats flexing, rather than the plastic.

I'll weigh in on these puppys now that I've used 'em for a few days. I have a few minor gripes.

I had a problem with the leds as well, I tested 'em before I mounted the lights and everything was cool, then after I installed them 3 went out. So I yanked all of 'em and made sure the wires were lined up right, now they're perfect.

I also noticed that my driver side light seems a little loose, not terrible bad though, I haven't looked to close yet to see why only the one is wiggly. I'll check it when I aim them properly on friday, right now they've only got a 25 foot "that should be pretty close" adjustment.

Other than that they're built crazy solid. It took me twice as long to get the lenses off of these bastards than my factory lights, I think it took me over an hour to get 'em both off with a good heat gun. I wouldn't be too worried about moisture unless you see a total gap in the sealer.

I just noticed something ...

I ordered the HID kit (6k), and don't have any ballasts. Is this normal? Are the ballasts internal to the lights, or did I receive the regular halogen lights?

They also look awfully yellow for 6k.

When I got mine the reg H1 bulbs were in the lights, and the HID kit was packed in a white foam, umm... packing... in one of the light boxes. The ballasts are about 4x3x1 plus a bunch of wire.

I didn't screw with the high beams, but there's a metal wire curl that you have to push in, and toward the light, to get it under the retainer. I could take a picture of it, if you have your lights installed already.
For the record, I haven't had a single issue with the lights.
For the wobbliness, could you put up pictures or vids of where the issue is?

Yeah mine was definitely missing. I PM'd ray.

I'm actually surprised how bright the non-hibeam halogen lights are. But not blue. :(

Yesterday I receive the headlights
They were packed very well and nothing is missing. Headlights seem better than on pictures :D
Just some questions:
- the low beam position lights are the outer one? So I have to install the HID kit there, correct?
- the black led's wires is the ground or the +12V wire?
Any hint for mounting and/or connection?
Thanks
:D

Black is the ground.
