View Full Version : lights on 08' STI

I have never had a car with HID so I have no idea what is normal. Seems to me that the HIDs, even at full tilt up, still do not send light as far down the road as my halogens did on the 04' WRX. Also, the line of light for the headlights is not straight. There is a distinct pattern/broken line. I guess I need to take a photo to avoid the "fail" response from the community :lol:

My questions:
1) Is it just my perception that less of the road is lit-up b/c the light that is there is so bright/sharp?

2) Is headlight level just how it is so I don't blind other drivers or is there a way to tilt the whole assembly up?

3) Is it normal to have a broken line of light for the HIDs?.

4) And, when I turn on my turn signal, is it normal for other cars and satellites to see the light? No joke, I can light-up overhead street signs from 6 cars back and I know it is me.

Thanks,
Taz

Sweet, sweet. From the feedback I have gotten from other HID people, looks like the pattern just is so "just deal, Taz" becomes the answer.

Ok, less difficult question I guess. Does anyone know what the difference is between the USDM and JDM fog light kit for the 08' STI aside from $200?

Thanks.
