    Sp where would the best spot be on the back of the lens to place the LED so it doesnt block the light from the HID bulb?

    Cool! Where would someone get fibers in amber color to do this?

    Thanks

    Its not just a order amber fibers kind of deal haha this guy spent months perfecting these and its phenomenal, he had a link on their Facebook just a dedicated master retrofitter haha

    And anywhere below the shield would work, you'll see when you get the projectors and see how the light output is delivered

    Anyone know the recommended beam adjustment? I've been seeing all kinds of information on level and distance.

    I bought my set MONTHS ago at a GREAT price! I have to say, if you are going to do an HID retrofit (I still haven't even installed mine!) this is absolutely the best way to go. All my questions were answered SUPER fast ACCURATELY, no pressure to buy and most of all a great deal or the price. This is the ONLY way to go. Thanks again to Andrew and all the guys at The Retrofit Source!

    Thanks guys. I tried to get them close tonight, but couldn't find a super level spot. I'll see if I get flashed at all.

    Good rule of thumb is to make sure your cutoff is just below or right at other cars mirrors when your behind them

    If that tab sticks out like that, how the hell can it be put inside the shroud to shine through the openings?

    Mine didn't have that tab. The wires were soldered onto the ring itself, going with the direction.

    They have new ones out that don't have the tan or the yellow color to the ring

    So I got a shipping confirmation and a tracking number. Was I 25 or are they just getting prepared to ship until 25 orders?

    I think how they set it up is, once they confirm your order, they go ahead and print the shipping label. Or that's how it was done before. Who knows, maybe your order is the 25th one!

    That makes sense. I can see them getting the labels made and ship them out when all orders are made. Easier than making all 25 in one day
