alright 8thciv members, this website helped me divorce my dc5, helped me get my fg2 in october, helped me spend $2300 since then on parts, and now i need some help and advice before i spend more!
i'm a noob when it comes to retros, and i'm about to purchase one this week from a fellow member and i just want to make sure i'm getting my money's worth and making a good choice. I wanted to get HIDs PnP initially, but after searching for pictures between the difference between PnP HID and projector HID, i know what i have to get. The PnP has such an annoying glare.. retros are so much more clear with a clean cutoff, plus retros look so hawt! Just a couple questions...
I found some pretty helpful threads searching, below was probably the most helpful.

Honestly it was hard for me to justify this much money into headlights, (especially doin this behind the wifey's back LOL) so now i just want to make sure i'm getting good quality lights. Any other recommendations, suggestions? Thanks!

- This is most likely a noob question, but is the cut off suppose to be even? I noticed after alot of searching that i have not seen any even cut offs that are even.
- Are there issues with the cut off being too low and anyone having difficulties getting it higher? From pictures i've seen the cut off is usually too low for me and its hard to tell if the actual projector can be adjusted.
- Are there laws in each state on how wide and bright the spectrum is? (180 degree thing)
- Is there anything specific i need to look for when buying these, besides the cutoff? they are tsx projectors.
- Has anyone heard of Caveman or his work he does? I found 2... but no related posts about it.
