Finally got around to documenting what sillieidiot did for me a few weeks ago.
1) Fixed all of the wiring. According to him, my first installer, who did the Orion V2 install for me as well as the quad retrofit, did a terrible job and shiz was short-circuiting everywhere. The wires even caught fire at one point and he got zapped....
2) The inner factory high beams were replaced with Morimoto Mini H1s. The alignment was off back then, and became worse over time. He dug out the mound of glue or whatever it was that covered the base of the projector (?) and was able to re-position and aim them. The cutoff is now flat 180-degrees across the wall/ground when turned on.
-It's pointed low but not to the point where it's not functional. I plan on having it re-wired and coded to turn on when the fog light button is pressed (so delete the projector fog lights).
3) The LED turn signal on the passenger side was dim to the point where it looks like it's not even on. Fixed.
4) Originally, my V2s were wired to only turn on when the car was on (position 3) but now it's on whenever the unlock button is pressed. It fades out on its own or sooner if the lock button is pressed.
5) The ballasts used to be resting all over the place - on the low beam cover, the inner side of the fender underneath the hood, etc. Now it's tucked away underneath so the engine bay looks cleaner & factory.
The inner ring on the passenger side is still buggy and half of one side goes out when driving. All signs point to one other section of wiring that he had left alone (the original handiwork from my previous installer) or the board (?) being the only two possible suspects.
Headlights lens need to be sanded and coated later on....

Real nice. The sound in the garage makes it sound really loud. I assume it's the accoustics.Originally Posted by JKO_ZHP

For sure jealous of that pic/setup in the garage. Nice having the banner/pl8ts in there.
