Drewski Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 yeah i cant figure it out. the jump on the left is becuase of the wall, the 2nd jump is the actual step or slope of the sheild, the 3rd is ?????, the 4th slope down is ????, and the final line matches up with the actual step or slope of the shield. first one to figure it out gets a carrot if I had to guess.... it looky likey the semiphore (moving shield) is moved SLIGHTLY into highbeam position... like something in the headlight housing is pressing up against it? Hee hee hee.... ask me why I think this Um- because when I was doing mine, I had a nearly identical cutoff, and that was my problem... the bottom of the projector was being contacted by the inside of the housing. It needed a little "finessing" to get it working right. Well, kind of. I am not liking it though, so I will re-do my whole dealio this spring. Good luck soldier and cudos for having the cajones to do a retro in the first place! Cheers, Drew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIU Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Woohoo after all the talking i finally got down and did my RX330 retrofit! One question.... Are you guys still running the stock wires and everything? I am.... the HIDs wont melt them or anything right? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_luv Posted December 15, 2006 Author Share Posted December 15, 2006 I am running Stock wiring. Mr.350 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIU Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 I am running Stock wiring. I notice on initial startup that there sometimes is a flicker or two before it stabilizes.... Is this because the stock wiring doesnt provide enough power? Also did any of you adjust the headlights after the retrofit? Mine seems a tad high but nothing too major..
