HID projection head lights shaking

wooyoung · 03-28-2008, 11:16 AM

anyone experience their HID head lights shaking while driving over small or medium bumps in the road at night?

light refection from the head light seem to be shaking.

my guess, HID is loose?

tighten the bulb probally. could have worked itself loose.

thanks for the info,

is it safe to remove the HID yourself? Does anyone have instructions?

Mine shake a little bit when I hit abrupt bumps on the highway. I am pretty sure my bulbs are not loose though. I think that's just the way they are.

It could just be you'll notice the up/down motions of the car much more since it has a stiff suspension, and projector style lamps, especially HID's, have sharp light cutoff points. I had an S2000 and it was crazy how much you'd see the light cutoff line moving up and down while driving. Lots of oncoming drivers always assumed I was flashing my highbeams at them and would high beam flash back at me!
