Default Possible HID issues

I installed xenondepot HIDs in my CT and now i have a pretty pronounced hot spot from the drivers side. Its almost like the driver side is a spot light and the passenger side is a foglight. Havent tried adjusting them yet. Is that what I need to do?

Motorhead,

I would check both of the bulbs to make sure they are correctly seated in the headlight housing and then try swapping the bulbs to see if there is any change. If the hot spot stays on the same side, it may just be the aiming of the headlight as drivers side and passenger side lights are usually aimed different. If it does follow with the bulb, send us a PM with your order number and we can help you out.
