NUFF SAID. Thats how I did mine, i think i have the best H1 conversion here, plug n play, and reversible back to 9006 just by removing the adapter you created.

HIDs are meant for projectors, they are not made for nonprojector headlights because they scatter like crazy, at least the projector is contained. as you can tell lexus runs OEM HID on all their projectors. what i think you meant is not in regards to HIDs at all, it is more in regards the the projectors that create a cut off that is opposite and can blind oncoming drivers unless you correct this its all in threads.
