I can get my beam to aim right... I still want those HID look alike lights though, they look nice.

Now if you want the highbeam lights in the low beam spot then you have to cut. 1999 Contour SE Duratec ATX My feet and the Stra�?Ÿenbahn http://www.tempo-topaz-performance.com/topazsho/ the coolest Topaz ever!
