Default the headlights are designed by the devil !

the headlights are designed by the devil ! haha ... ok so i saw a post like that in the past and it made me laugh that i thought of it as i did my hack today .. i really dislike the wire clip that holds the h7 bulbs in but wanted to upgrade to HID, so did i buy a H7 kit ? of course not i got DS2 bulbs (stock bulbs on factory HID cars) from phillips and retro fitted them to the housing ... to my shock i did not need to make a offset spacer to adjust the beam as both the h7 and ds2 had the same depth where the light illuminates from. the result ? i cut half a inch off the headlamp housing. ooooh, ouch, yes it did hurt to do but the ds2 socket needed room. but all turned out well as the beam is cleam with no bleeding and a clean cutoff as expected. i just have to go grab some tad larger rubber caps tomorrow to seal the housings with and take some pictures to post of the beam pattern.
