They look SICK at night, and remember the only person that has to like your car is YOU! So spill, where did you get them, and how much? PM me if it's a secret.

Found out why the flick up is there. I took a picture of my headlights and i saw this inside the beam. So someone was correct about the shields.

Yes, I noticed that my local Autozone had Sylvania versions of silver-tinted turn signal bulbs last week when I bought replacements for my brake bulbs.

2006 C230, 2006 BMW M3, bye bye C55:(
I was interested on getting Halo's done as well on my car but I wanted them on the inner light of the headlight, not the actual bulb. Not really a fan of this look but need to see pics during the daytime as well

The light flick is common in third party projector headlamps. I get the same problem with depo and eagle eyes on my bmw, and seems like its giving the same problem over here as well.

Inside the projector you will see a metal plate resembling the shape of _/-- the cut on the plate is usually not as precise as oem, and the projector quality (the glass sphere) is also on the low side.

Pardon me if im wrong, but that is to my knowledge. Nonetheless, it shouldnt be much of a bother though, they just dont look as nice. One thing noticeable though, the light beams arent as "thick" as they should be.

My lights light up my whole coldasac cut off is pretty dumb i do have to agree with you on that. Glass sphere is also known as a FISHBOWL haha. Also above the beam pattern they give off a purple hue color which looks pretty at night. Do you have HID's installed on yours

Yup, the light isn't bad, but compared to a retrofit with a better "fishbowl" you'd get much better output. I learnt this from my bimmer..

However, retrtofitting isn't easy to do and doesn't always fit flush with the headlight casing.

And yes I'm using a 55w 4500k hid..
