i was going to tell you to try this, all three of the kits i got for my truck needed to be reversed. i have the highs, lows and fogs done now.

the high beams i just did so they match, the lighting is kinda weird from them.
most of the kits i install at work i also have to reverse too just on a side note, unless you skip the HID bulbs extension for the factory bulb to make it to the ballast. and just plug the truck socket into the ballast itself then youre usually fine. the extension isnt needed unless you have a sealed lens with the bulbs inside, like a dodge truck, lol and then you cut a hole in the cover and put that rubber plug in, then no water and the light doesnt fog up... even projectors with HIDs in them

I don't know about the rest of you guys, but I am getting tired of recieving the same lame backorder email from DDM which after I called them isn't even true as far as time frame goes. Quick yanking my dick, DDM.

The bulb boxes have the same part # and say 9005/6 on them. What's up with that? Jim
