I know they have ways on the instructions but my hid set up did not come with one. I got this kit the 55 watt version.

Ooh, thats not a deflector.
Sorry. I'm going off of memory from looking at HID lights on other cars.

If that is just a wire lead, it wont matter which direction it faces.
I'd probably put mine towards the top though.

But if its just a wire. It wont matter which direction it goes.
Just put them both the same so you dont look like an **** if somebody peers inside the light.
