lol oh. i didnt know whether you were talking about a teg or just really stupid.

either way, it shouldnt be too hard to convert back. just splicing wires. why not just look into why they dont work and fix that though?

Its probably just a plug and "pray" kit.....just take a look at it and see if you can just unplug everything. Also make sure everything is connected good. as far as one shining in the ditch...it probably just needs to be adjusted

Yeah most likely its plug and play. Just unplug the wire thats connecting to the HID that's coming from the car. Then you can plug in your stock bulbs there.

You most likely have some cheap HIDS from ebay. If you want a quality one, hit up NITROHID. He's a member on here. He sells very good quality hids for good price, everyone knows him on this forums so hes trust worthy.

Im not sure about DA headlights.....but my car has 2 10mm bolts you can turn for Right/Left and Up/Down.


EDIT: I just googled it....

"On the back of the healight housing you will see two adjustment wheels. This looks like a gear like wheel. One is right near the corner light, and that adjusts side to side movement. The other is closer to the center I think, and that adjusts up and down. You use a phillips screwdriver to make the adjustments."

hey my brother sold you my car, its just a plug thats loose on the headlight. I never had brights on the thing, so dont be alarm if you dont have it either. I own this car and let my brother in atlanta have it. I know the ins and outs of this car. So let me know if you need any help. I really enjoyed this car. I drove it up to michigan and drove it back down to atlanta, so he can have a car.
