had to cut the low beam off a spare headlight. ill re-aim my high beams to function as lowbeams. i used to get flashed all the time anyway with my HID low beams on, wont be anny diff with just hi beams, lol. but i have a spare headlight and a HKS mushroom style filter to put on if i need to. i like the idea of the intake being so far from the heat socked bay.
