    Just installed these, they look amazing. Curious to see how they hold up long term! For those wondering about the DRL, it is white, it does not have that bluish tint like the video does. I wondered the same thing before purchasing.
    To get them to run during the day, I did not splice or do any wiring, I used FORScan to enable DRL and set them to parking lights. Now whenever I am in gear, the white LED bar is on.

      So to swap the bulbs on the low beam there are 3 screws to remove, pull the power to the dead bulb and remove the little secure pin and remove bulb, put new bulb in, secure pin and put power plug in and put the 3 screws back in and for the high beam you just twist the cover off - remove secure pin and pull the dead bulb out, new bulb in, secure pin and twist cover back in

  •  5 років тому +6

    For future reviews, put the new headlight up with a direct comparison to the old headlights. Otherwise, everything you've just done is pretty much useless and just your opinion.
    What is the color temperature of the new HID bulbs and more importantly, what is the beam pattern?

    Probably a dumb question, but I've been wondering this for a while - why don't ANY aftermarket headlights fit if you have factory HIDs installed? These would be a nice addition to my front end, but they won't work because I have OEM HID headlights.

    The most important part of the review should be the beam pattern, that is the function of the headlamp and you guys missed it. A video of night driving with low and high beams comparing the OEM versus the one installed is the difference between me buying it or not. Sorry guys, these look great but that is not enough for buyers like me looking for performance and good looks at the same time.
