Tomorrow I'm going to pull the assembly and see if I can shim it or check for obstructions. It's lower then the original center mark but it's to the left which points into oncoming traffic. I barely had to adjust the passanger side but the driver side I've fussed with for 30 minues and I still can't get it right. The drivers side went up by two feet while the passanger stayed the same. I did the trick of parking the truck up against a wall and marking the centers of the beam then backing up 25' feet and adjusting. ![]() Used a rotozip so that part was pretty simple and quick but getting these damn things alligned is a real pain. I had to trim the grill backing to clear the back of the HID bulbs. I got the headlights installed today it was a real *****. You can go to youtube and search for F350 ebay projector and it's a couple from the top. I have the first video done and posted, it's a whopping 29 minutes of just setting up the HID bulbs in the projectors and sealing everything up. If not then put the bulbs they gave you into the projector tubs and don't worry about the HIDs. In reality the important part is to see the side of the road, the fact that the HIDs are 3 or 4 times brighter then the halogens will light up the road just fine with the lower level and with the drivers a little lower you will not blind oncoming drivers. If you find that it is not working out then go back and set the passenger at the proper level and the drivers a couple inches lower. On my 08 that is slightly lower then the top of the trunk of the car in front. The important thing, you do not want the majority of the light to be higher then, say bumper level on the door. In the owners manual it tells you how to set the lights. Put it all together and park it in front of the garage door. ![]() The HIDs probably run a little cooler then the 55/65w halogens that came in the truck. ![]() I don't know you got the 35w kits, i would go for it.
