Default question about hids

hi i recently replaced my hid bulbs with aftermarket hid bulbs and i did everything right except on the driver side when i turn on my lights the lining is wierd but on my passenger side its a perfect straight line against the wall.. is there a certain way im suppose to put the new bulb in?

i also tried putting my stock hid bulb back in the driver side and it is messed up as well =[

thanks

Where did you buy those? surprised you didnt get flamed like i did when i brought 12k's up. Must look pretty crazy at night, I thought about buying a pair to swap in on occasion to look nuts. Are they really dim as hell?
