surely someone will come and start the legality and safety debates but i'll spare you. You should align any new lighting setup on any vehicle, and as part of your yearly maintenance check the alignment, this will provide you the best results and the least detriment to other drivers. I personally have hid's in both of my vehicles and i spent some good quality time aiming them both.

  Thanks. I always have it checked when I do my inspections but I was not sure if it would have to be done now with the upgrade. I will do it . Thanks for the heads up...
