You could put servo in the mounting so you can scan it from side to side.

Imagine the fun. The possibilities are endless. :lol:

Paul thank you for sharing your experimentations. Maybe the use of Lexan would eliminate the chances of having cracks.

Ran an errand tonight and took a few pics. The Galaxy S5 I have has one heck of a camera, so keep that in mind (the light isn't quite as bright as it looks in the last pic).

That is impressive! Does it draw more power than a regular sealed beam? Keep us guys with the angled headlights in mind for your plans.  :i_am_so_happy:

I installed a 55W HID, however I took out a 55W halogen so it should be a wash. The ballasts run on anything from 9-16V so nothing to worry about there.

So far so good. I have no complaints at all with my setup.
