I just got out of an 08 GTI with factory HIDs and the light pattern was the same as my Ralliart. In fact, the top of the cutoff is higher in my ralliart (set to 0) than it was in the GTI.
Looks like this from each light: ____/^^^^__/^^^^
(except instead of ^'s, picture a straight line, lol)
It's the same pattern as the E-Code (european) headlights I had on my 97 Audi A4 as well.
Could it be that Americans are used to different HID projector cutoffs than we get here in Canada? Possible...E-Code pattern headlights are legal in Canada (as I had on my A4) but illegal in the US according to the DOT, so maybe USDM spec vehicles usually have a straight cutoff....
