      Retrofit HID's aren't allowed in NZ anyway.
      Halogen projectors are fine provided they can be adjusted.

      A "Finished" project car is never finished until its been sold.

      If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.

            America has it their own way - Because they don't mind being blinded by someone that fitted their Retro fitted HID's pointing at the sky.


            Adjustment means, that the headlight has an adjusting screw to adjust the height of the cut off beam.

            Yep sell the HID kit

              ROFL thats america for ya.....yeah i kind of knew what you ment by adjustment it dawned on me after i had posted my last one lol.

              well the projectors dont seem to have adjustment screws but il gona give it ago any ways...might be able to pack them out with washers or something....iv already payed for them and the shipping and dont like the idea of shipping them back and losing that money so might aswell make the best of em.

                Thats why I spent the extra money for the projectors when I got HIDs, because I didn't want to be the guy that blinds people.
