Image shows my HIDs after the modification.
Are using using the bulbs with 35W or 55W ballasts for your low beam?
I'll look at the bulbs tonight but I thought they had a protruding tab on the bottom that locks them into their seating position placing the anode on the top casting the shadow on the bottom. Are yours locked into that reversed position or is the spring tension just holding them against the mating surface.
Also are you using the Morimoto ballasts too?
Thanks
