    Shouldn't be a lot. You'll see it adjust with a full turn or two.

    I love my lights too! I recieved them a few weeks ago, and just waiting on my CBI bulbs. I was mistakenly sent the morimotos, can't wait to see how they'll look with the better bulbs!

    Yeah I am actually now on the fence of those or the philips xtreme visions. Either way I'll be happy once I actually recieved them I'm sure.

    Just wanted to post some of @ambiguous / Burt's work. I had mine done about 2 years ago now. I still love them. They have held up great and still look brand new. I even rewired the set-up differently. Took this photo a few days ago.

    I like the placement you did for the control boxes. Have you had any issues with moisture? The recommended mounting for the Morimoto control box is with the connectors facing downward to hopefully prevent water getting in...

    Are CBI's a different HID bulb? Better than Morimoto?

    Yeah, Osram makes CBI bulbs and they're oem vs aftermarket morimotos. CBIs are also x3 the cost. $160 vs $50. And CBIs are the brightest 5500k temp bulb

    Look at what you did.
    I saw this on instagram and liked it so much, I took my bezels and shrouds to the paint shop. Finally got it today
    Maybe this will give me the extra boost to really finish up my murano build lol

    Thanks! I'm still debating either tinting my amber reflectors or go clear. I want clear reflectors but not sure about local laws

    I think either way would look good. Tinted clear might look good.


    Hey Rad. I shot you an email about my high beams still not engaging. I'm not sure what voltage I should be getting from the moto control harness, but I included what mine is showing. Lmk, what my next step is when you get a chance.

    ^ I just got your message this morning.

    It's going to be the actual controller. We're going to get you a new one as we appreciate trying to figure out all avenues prior.

    Love the Lights Sam!

    Let's keep all RECHELON Lights in the RECHELON Thread. I don't frequent this thread anymore.
