Just noticed this the other day. Low side. I have 8K HID's. From the heat it appears that they are discoloring the inside of the lens. Really can tell of you get level with it up close.

Anyone having this issue? These are Aftermarket Clear Housings on OBS without Cut Off Shield.

They yellowed and melted one of my fogs in the nali

but the 880 HID bulb is wicked close to the lens vs the shorter 880 halogen

Any ideas besides buying a new set with the Cut Off Shield?

They do, but sometimes the bulbs can be longer putting them really close to the plastic.

is it 35watt or 55watt?

They are 35W 8K HID's from HIDGate.
