Fix the cutoff or return the headlights for being defective. If I was in the area I'd either fix it myself (if those are even fixable...) or shoepolish your windows while you sleep warning other drivers of the oncoming hazard.



Oh, and by the way the company says they offer a 6 month warranty on the workmanship of the headlights, so send them back.

EDIT: oh and if you could since you take such pretty pictures, get a picture of the cutoff against a wall from MORE than 5 feet away? more like 25-30ft away at the least? I guarantee that cutoff suddenly disappears everywhere but the center. Or one better, face your car towards another car from more than 25ft away and take a picture of the cutoff then.
I like them and I have no intention to return them
and I said i will probably not gonna fix it but I will end up fixing it when i have time. So just chill man..!!

Oh and the cut offs... that is actually about 10 fits away probably little bit more.
I guarantee you that cutoff is still there. I've been driving around at night to test the cutoffs and other lights and such. It's true that cutoff is really bright in the center but
don't worry friend. I will get it fixed and probably post the fixed pic over the weekend or when I have time. Hmm.. more like after next thursday.

Thanks for your concerns man.. I really appreciate it... I will fix the cutoffs and keep y'all updated...

Oh and I'm NOT planning to put HIDs cuz suprisingly I like the halogen color better right now. When you see the projected light it's halogen color...well little bit brighter... cuz i changed the bulb... but looking from kinda far away... the lense color kinda mixes together and give purple'ish color which I really liked.

FYI, to properly aim the projector headlights, park 25 feet from a wall on a level surface, the top of the cutoff should be 2 inches below the center of the projectors. this is assuming you can level out the crooked cutoff first, otherwise it'll be a pointless excercise.

All these projectors come with screwed up cut offs from the factory. I don't think it can be fixed. FYI the adjustment bolt is for verticle adjustment. Up and down. I've never heard of a projector that you can rotate. Yet everyone will claim that their gonna fix it. Good luck! You will have to bake those bad boys and crack them open, and even then we don't know how they are bolted in there. My guess is no one will fix the problem, and no one cares enough to get the manufacturer to recall them. But I've already been over this in other threads.

They look okay, not really digging them, but for what you pay you cant expect too much from them. Pay for some home made ones and you cant complain or compare. I wish i could have designed these.

Fitting was O.K. except that right side had little trouble but no biggie..lol

wiring for halos took me long time cuz i though white wires were ground..-_-;;;

but still it took me about 20 min to get the bumper off and about 30 min to

take head lights off and wiring took me 20 min. and putting bumper back on took me 10 min.

total 1 hour 20 min.... I guess not bad for real newbie for this forum and cars...lol

My small reviews...

Pros: It gave my FM tC a mean look.!! (I don't have any daytime pic yet but I might take some tomorrow.) Pretty Easy to install even for a noob. like me. Pretty good finish. Good water proof'ing ( I poured whole bucket of water on headlight area..
and no harms...lol;;; It rains alot sometimes in Austin..-0- so for some test..LOL)

Cons: Right side doesn't fit well like left one but w/ some force it fits OK. Halo wiring is NOT plug and play(it's pretty easy tho... remember white is NOT ground like it is on tC) Hard to adjust the bulb(after you install them there isn't much room to put your hands in to do something.. I got many cuts trying the adjust level.)

I really like it.... I used to have 6000K HIDs with stock housing but now I don't think I will be installing HIDs for a while... I'm running low on my monthly budget...-_T.
And I think just halogens look pretty good. If you look closely it's yellowish halogens but if you look from away it kinda gives you the lens color which I liked.


here are some pics...




Turn signal on... it turns on like bmws








Close Up cutoff. it's photoshop'ed for better visibility. Only contrast change tho.


Whole cutoff. I've done my best to try to level them... and I think it can be leveled
more even... but after installing the headlights... it's kinda hard to adjust the bolts so... that's good enough for me...lol

Dumb question i know..but how did you do the wiring, im stupid and not a noob to engine stuff but a noob to the wiring off some stupid head lights that i love..lol
