Default HID Conversion

Well I just installed an H11 HID conversion kit in my Camry Hybrid I got from Xenongate.com

I got the 6k bulb and it look's ok but I don't see any adjustment screw's for the headlight because it seems like it is projecting too high.

And also, what's the best way to upgrade the High beam's? Or is it best just to leave it alone?

Thanks

I did the same thing, upgrade to the Xenon, but the 4300 instead. No comparison to the halogens, I would never go back.
The adjustment is a 8mm head bolt in the center of the headlight housing. Turn clockwise to lower, and counterclockwise to raise.

Wow thanks!
I think the 6k look's too after market. How are the 4k's?

I like the 4300's but I think 5k would also be ok for me but not higher.

Do the 6K look too aftermarket to you? I am debating on what I should do now?
I don't want it to look ricer.

I have 5K HIDs and They are a nice white light with a hue of blue. The 6K HIDs are really easy to tell because they have a blue tint at almost any angle. Then there are the folks with the 8K HIDs which look horrible (in my opinion).

I left the high beams as is since I rarely use them.

This may have been discussed before, if so, please forgive me, but does the extra wattage cause any problems? I'm talking about the 35 watt TCH low beams vs. the 55 watt replacements.

I am not sure of your question on the extra wattage?
The original low beam halogen is 55 watts and the HID that I put in are the 35watts.
There are 55watts HID's available, but I didn't get them.
I have not experienced any problems with the HID's, even at -30C.
