are you sure about that? Even so I would not trust that thing especially since its a used tool it could damage your existing thread. I used it to push against the center bolt and it worked just fine
From what I read you tried to use the puller after taking out the center 14mm bolt. What you SHOULD do is unscrew that center bolt so it is loose (maybe about 1/4 out) but leave it in so that the puller has something to push against instead of going into the hole. About the side bolts that...
hate to point it out but you are wrong that 12k would look more like an OEM HID, because OEM HIDs are generally 4100-4300k. And just because you don't get pulled over in downtown SJ doesn't mean anything.. all you need is that one jackass of a cop to spot you.
