So I've been emailing Ed about this problem, but figured I'd see if anyone else has an idea what's going on.
I bought Ed's MK7.5 HID headlight replicas for my MK7.5 halogen car and had them professionally installed at a garage. The installation apparently went well, but I've found that the beam pattern looks pretty strange.
You can see in the photos I've uploaded, there's a strange notch being projected from each light rather than a level plane.
Ed said that the bulb is probably oriented incorrectly, when I brought the car back to the garage the tech said he couldn't align it any better because the green part (pictured as well) that holds the bulb only has 1 notch so the bulb sort of just floats around. He thought it was broken, hence pointing at that part, but Ed sent me a replacement that still only has 1 notch.
It also seems very, very difficult to align the bulb correctly once the headlight housing is actually on the car. Do you guys think it is an issue with the bulb alignment, or the bulb itself maybe, or the projector, or something else?
