[QUOTE="LatifVR4, post: 1104763, member: 17946"] HID seller, 1) I was reffering to 6000K not 8000K. 2) I was reffering to the use of OEM enclosures not those cheap after market enclosures which are usually made in China and few other countries within our region....FACT is even those cheap projector headlights will not throw out a well focused beam pattern (lots of hotspots). This is mainly due to the use of poor quality materials (e.g mercury coating...as you suggested) and low standard of quality control (less or nil proper research done). Thus better to only stick to those having quality standards from Japan or Europe (e.g. CE)...but please bear in mind that there are lots of products having these forged CE stamps on them (especially from China). 3) IRRESPECTIVE of types (HALOGEN or HID), the beam pattern is determined by the reflectors inside the enclosure....CONTRARY to what you suggested. Otherwise bulbs (HID or halogen) will not be interchangeable between sides and WILL then have to be individually marked "FOR LEFT SIDE USE ONLY" and "FOR RIGHT SIDE USE ONLY". The reflector enclosures we are using here are designed for Right Hand Drive vehicles ONLY and likewise those in Europe(except UK) will only be for Left Hand Drive vehicles ONLY. This is clearly shown by those who owns cars which were imported directly from Europe and the Middle East countries and then converting them into RHD (from originally LHD).....getting flashed for glaring oncoming traffic. 4) I am not trying to only promote the usage of my stuffs BUT RATHER to promote a more responsible usage of these highly powerful lighting equipments. Lets work hand in hand to do so because if we don't, just because of few irresponsible users and sellers these equipments will be banned by our land transportation licensing authority. I had refused to sell my stuff to some potential buyers who have low quality enclosures and or diffusing enclosures.....and also I kept on stressing the proper realignment of light enclosures because irrespective of HID, halogen, reflector or projectors.......improperly alligned enclosures will be blinding and dangerous to both the driver and others.
