I'm planning on doing this mod with oem ballasts and I was wondering how bad the glare is.
I noticed the clear lines on the wall in the pictures, but there seems to be a slight glare right above the cut line, also, in the pictures from the front seemed to be giving off "some" glare.
I'm wondering if its a camera thing or can you pretty much sit infront of the car "at night" and not be blinded as i can do with my halogen.(dont do it literally) Just want to make sure since I've seen "hid conversion kit" converted car with oem projectors like on an integra or GMC suvs and they give of some eye killing glare.
Also wondering how you sealed the bulb to the headlight and the ballast, since with the oem hid assembly theres a plate that covers all the external parts and connections.

Ive been searching for an answer for this question throughout the forum but no luck... a bit if help would be appreciated. OK so I bought my 8 a while back and it currently has a headlight thats OEM HID and another thats OEM HALOGEN Im getting a bit anxious to find out which one originally came on my 8 from factory .. I have no clue on how to figure out which one was replaced without having to tear my front end apart .. is there any way of figuring it out without removing the bumper ? I'm trying get this solved asap so I can be sure of which new headlight to order ..
