Hey Paul

1. You must paint the interior with satin black otherwise the car just won't start. Seriously; its your choice really. All of today's (modern) sport cars have them with black interiors hence the idea of painting them. That's what look best (x1,000) if you ask me, but not mandatory at all.

2. The high beam becomes obsolete with those bi-xenon optics, and so is the socket/hole for the bulb. It is safe to remove the bulb... the back sealed cover is sufficient to prevent dusts to enter the headlight assembly. The high beam connector's 12v is what triggers the bi-xenon solenoid cutoff plate!

3. You do not have to buy additional wires. Those are all included in the kit. They just don't show up on the rendering you've posted above (got lazy doing CAD cabling loll).


Shipping all 26 kits along with a few center caps this coming week!! Crazy I know (twenty-six kits).

Busy this weekend re-machining the small adapters that house the HID bulb in the back of the projector :/ I guess that's what happen when you get new machine-tools and German controllers. Those were initially threaded with a 1.25mm thread while the optic takes a 1mm thread. Crazy mistake... luckily those are quite easy to remake but regardless I have to throw out 180+ parts in the bin.
