Looking good.

The silverstars I have are white as hell too. I just looked at mine tonight and it made me think twice after I bought it. Mine should arrive tommorow.
Can't wait to see what yours look like. people flash me all the time now so I can't imagine what they will do to yours. Are silverstars HID's or are they just regular bulbs?

The bulbs I have on now are sylverstar bulbs. The kit I got is a McCulloch HID kit 6000k. Its like crystal white.

The lights look good even though they are blinding other drivers. I might do that and get some. I have projectors though. Do you have pictures of what you did to install the bulbs. What did you dremel out?? I don't think the junk yards here will sell them that cheap. Good buy.

There is a silver metal ring that the actual bulb fits into that is smaller than that of the TL. Not by much but just enough for the fit to be off. The installation was so easy that after everything it really only took me an hour for both lights. The rubber piece that seals everything in stuck out a little and I had the wires for the HID's coming out of the bottom. Overall it was very clean

I have a 95 civic, with shark eyes projectors. I wonder if it will look nice even with the glares. I'm sure it won't come out that bad. Besides the bulbs for my projectors aren't H4, its H3 for low beam and H1 for high beams.

Yes.....
look at this pic see where 4100-4300 land on the whiteish spot and produces better output....as it goes higher less visibilty comes.

Tell me about it. I lit up signs for everyone and also light up 4 lanes.

Which direction did you turn to lower the angle? I havent got to that yet but I dont wanna guess when I do so.

Imagine you were looking over from the passensger side, standing in front of the bumper. Turn left or turn right?
