I just installed mine the other day and when driving at night the light is much whiter but I have to use the factory fogs to see the road?

I read that some people needed to aim the lights lower. I wonder if I am lighting up the sky.

It sure sounds like it. With mine, I can barely tell when I turn on the fog lights there is so much light from the IPFs on low beam. I adjusted mine at night, looking down the road as I turned the screws.

Like just about everyone else I hated the stock head lights. I order the Delta Quadbar replacements about 2 weeks before I saw that Northridge was putting their package together. The Deltas are better than stock, but from what I've read on the forum I really wish I had the Northdrige package instead

Is there any reason to be concerned about getting pulled over with the blue bulbs? How much blue is there in the light output with the blue bulbs?

Installed mine tonight. A true night and day difference. And to those that worry about the blue bulbs, don't. The light they give off is nice and white, and doesn't have that dingy yellow tint. I only notice a little blue in the reflector when the light is off.

I bought the IPF lens' only with the intension of running HID's. So for temporary I am using silver star bulbs. The IPF's seem to have filled the dead spot between the fogs and the factory lights as well as better light and distance.

What I really wanted to mention was that the bulbs seemed loose behind the retainer ring. I took a 22" piece of solid copper electrical wire with the plastic cover on and formed it into an "o"ring. slipped this up into the lip of the retainer ring and wa-la, no more loose headlamp. Hope this helps someone else.

After a bottle of champagne and a bottle of zinfandel and listening to Randy Neumann I am stuck on why anyone could be whining about the light quality of David's products. They are great. Better than stock and reasonable at the price no matter the color. Buy them and use them and get something better it you have. They meet my cost vs. quality test and if you don't appreciate that then buy something that costs more. They are what they are! A reasonable cost alternative to poor lights.
