Just put in new HIDs I got the retro shop kit 55w 5000k and everything works fine and they look the same up close to a wall but the passanger side is significantly brighter like a focused beam. I didn't notice any smudges or anything on the bulbs it's a 2014 with projectors oem. What could be causing this? Ill probably swap bulbs tomorrow after work to see if it's that or the housing maybe? They would be perfect if they both looked like the right one. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

edit: contacted retroshop it's 1030pm and I got a response in 10 minutes. Resolved the issue it was a bulb seating issue. I read about it in a install guide but didn't realize it.

Anyways they resolved that quick. Perfect customer service and high quality kit. Thanks,
