my HID Retrofit

[Saleen4971]

Are you using md2s/mh1, or a full retro unit like the fxr?

Md2s

Huh.......so which snap isn't right? If the adjuster isn't popping in place, that should keep the beam high, not low

 

[o2sys]

I dunno, still on the car. I was turning the stock adjustment with a screwdriver to level up and down...

Then as I was aiming up, I hear a pop, then the entire reflector bowl fell and saw the beam pattern drop. Then it just wouldn't move no matter how much I turned it with the screwdriver.

Maybe it just dislocated...

bump from the past

whats the sealing tape you used?
Ordered my kit today and looking to do it similar to yours set back into the housing

 

[Saleen4971]

just some alum tape.

have since removed it, and used butyl, but if i were to do it again i would fix a piece of PVC to the back and use a rubber grommet to seal it. much prettier.

if you can avoid removing the reflector from the housing, avoid it. i dont know if its possible, but these fasteners dont like being taken apart.

I think I'll pick up aftermarket with smoked reflector so it isn't super obvious and just mount it as is
