HID Conversion Kit Refraction Issues SOLVED? Options

[upscaleauto]

We all know that the typical HID kits on the market will refract light incorrectly in OEM halogen headlight housings without some sort of labor-intensive retrofitting or conversion to HID/projector housings. However, all of that is changing with a brand new design. What do you think about an HID kit that allows you to focus the bulb (outward/inward movement) within your OEM halogen headlight housings, resulting in a properly focused beam? Preventing the light refraction issues of traditional HID conversion kits and allowing for proper beam patterns? Two versions are in the works now - one automatic/remote adjustment version and one manual adjustment version. These kits will included ballasts and plug-n-play wiring to make the installation simple as well.

A few diagrams are below to explain the drawbacks of traditional HID kits and the advantage of a 'focusing' bulb like in this new HID kit.

to be honest, i dont think fixing the focal point will solve the problem with the scattered light. Even with a stock 9006 bulb, the beam isnt very sharp in the first place. The design of the headlight simply cant handle the extra light. btw, the picture on the right looks like a headlight with a projector. Only way to get a proper hid install on our cars is to do a projector retro or JDM projectors with a modified sheild.

plus, i have tried filing down a aftermarket 9006 bulb to play with the focal points. it hardly makes a difference. from my experimenting, this seems useless. sorry
