    Do the 55w morimoto ballasts wash out the bulbs as much as they do in PnP kits?

    I know its probably been asked before, but in the description it says the pricing only applies to the morimoto 3five bulbs. Just wondering if I could get the morimoto xb35 bulbs instead and still qualify for the GB pricing?

    I believe the coupon allows XB35 bulbs but if not, the order will still go through and the bulbs won't have the discount. You should be able to see the total before paying.

    Looks like it's just not seated correctly or something isn't lined up in regards to the cutoff shield inside....

    Thanks, I'll try taking it out and outing it in again. Maybe I'll try switching driver and passenger and see if that changes anything.

    Make sure to look at the bulb, theres two little knob like thins on it that tend to break off easily, they could be seated correctly then when you try to clip the ballast on it throws it off

    What they all said. Make sure it sits flat against the projectors.

    Driver: (First one i did.. Cutoff is angled up a bit, i think is projector is a little twisted or am i wrong :()
