    So I ordered these same brights, I was having a hell of a time locking the bracket it but I loosened the housing bracket with a screwdriver and was able to turn them in and lock them nice and tight! I see people in the comments having this problem but once you fix it it’ll be well worth it, these brights are BRIGHT

      Yes these light bulbs were a pain to lock in. I’m glad you were able to get them installed, I’ve had them almost a year and they still work fine 👍

    I had a hell of a time trying to get these exact bulbs to seat, but finally gave up. I meticulously confirmed alignment, but I couldn't get them to press far enough in to the housing for the tabs to rotate and engage. I just read that the installed o-rings may be too big, and its suggested to swap with what was on the original bulbs. I am going to try that. I'll report back if that works. I also ordered a different set which I'll try at the same time.

      I’m sorry to hear about the bulbs not fitting properly, not sure why but the set I installed fit fine, I’ve had mine on for two years and still working fine, 🤷🏻‍♂️

      @@jamesakaflcruzr4277 Thanks for the reply. Must be the ones I got, because after the trouble, I ordered a set of Lasfit fanless 9005's from Amazon also and they went in easily. And worked as DRL at reduced brightness/no flicker and bright as heck on high. So I'm good. Thanks. Great videos btw.

      @jamesakaflcruzr4277  3 роки тому +2

      Thanks, at times I regret it because it would have been nice to have a sunroof. Other than the sunroof I really am enjoying my sport truck. I didn’t want the leather and in my opinion the sport has enough options, most of safety tech so I’m very happy with it. My wife has a 21 Odyssey with leather and options and I don’t like the leather in our Florida heat, but the sunroof is nice. I may end up adding a sunroof to my truck so we will see. Although sunroof is mostly for our cool winters, lol.

  • @joefratianni8693

    What kind of heat output on these bulbs? Im concerned about how they are used for DRL in low power mode and the housing may not withstand an extra heat out put. Also, what exactly are the fans cooling?

    • @jamesakaflcruzr4277

    Thanks for the video. Just did this install on my new 2023 RTL. Very easy but I noticed that these LED's seem not to secure into the housing as securely as the OEM bulbs. Did you notice this? Thanks.

    • @mikec7713
      @mikec7713 Рік тому

      You may be experiencing the same as I did. When you say “not secure” are you sure they turned a good 1/4 turn to lock in? I couldn’t get this brand to fully seat and as a result not engage the locking tabs fully. I ended up using a different bulb which seated fully, just like the original halogens.

      @jamesakaflcruzr4277  3 роки тому +3

      Well, it did take me some work, the bulbs have a small nudge and you have to get it right on to the housing, the way I was able to sit was by looking through the headlight housing and aligning it and then I felt the bulb clip onto the housing. I hope this helps.
