No, the HID arc and the H4 filament are very similar, and the upkick is part of the light intended to illuminate more of the shoulder of the road and signs, it's part of it's optics. You can see the angled part in the glass on them as well.EDIT: apparently i had posted a similar thought before.....it goes to show you how messed up my memory and brain cells(all 2 of em) actually are.......9 big surgeries and corresponding anesthesias will do that! sorry for the "double" post
looking back....that "cats eye" lookin bem is very similar to what i had hen the bulb was not seated and cocked to one side......i wonder if it's a similar thing going on with the semi-circle arc from the HID? the "filiment" is not where it's supposed to be in relation to the reflector......interesting.
