you should go bang your head against a wall, your cut off sucks for NUMBER 1: you are using the stock halogen housing for HID's. If you searched you would know "AT LEAST" that much

hotspots won't go away, sorry. housing not meant for hids, but just aim them correctly and it'll be slightly better.

but seriously.....there is not to much you can do with an HID kit in the stock 00-01 housings. The best thing you can do without having to modify ANYTHING is to just try to re-aim them...Other than that your attempts are futile

Pretty Much. If projectors is not for you amomaxima, and your glare shields didnt go as planned. YOU now have two options 1) back to the drawing board with the glare shields AND 2) 2K2-2k3 Headlights

yea like Kyle00 said, you should be able to find something....Even if you dont get a response right away, something will come up. I got mine from another .org member (1sxyLeo) for 400 bucks, and i did local pickup.
