Incorrect LED Installation??

[buttsbunny]

Hello everyone! I had installed these a while back and was gonna ask but forgot about it until know. After installing my LEDs, there is this line that goes through the actual light. Did I improperly install these? And if so, what is the method to cure this. Sometimes I’m not even sure my lights are on at night time. Thank you

What LEDs are they? I have the Morimoto 2 Stroke 2.0's and I had to make sure and line them so the output goes to the sides like a regular bulb would so the light output looked normal. Line should be vertical.

These are hikari lights. Are they not vertical right now? I’m not sure I understand what you mean by lining them up tbh :/

The LED chips should be positioned at 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock.

It's normal. On the halogen stock bulb, you can see a small "H" in the center of the light output.

They do that because the LEDs are mounted on opposite sides, sandwiching a flat column. The line you see is the empty spot on the middle of the column.

Its why the beam for each bulb being projected isn't one straight line, but two layered over eachother
