Don't worry... if something is wrong with that unit we'll absolutely take it back and issue a full refund. I hope we get it working!

Can someone please explain to me how you "install it wrong". I mean were talking about regular bulbs here. No wiring, no resistors, straight up plug and play like any regular halogen bulb. Plug it in and twist it on. The ones that have tried it explained that they installed it like there regular halogen (either gp thunder or mtec bulbs) so why is installing this any different?

+1 I would like to know how you install them wrong..since it fits flush and one side isn't sticking out. It looks exactly the same as the GPs on the other side

The color is bluish, some may want this effect others want to match the HIDs.

So nobody at Umnitza took any pics of the bulbs installed on a car when they made this led bulb? Seems kind of strange to come out with a product and not have any pictures of it so that we have to guess if this is how it is suppose to look or not.

I'm kind of surprised becasue Umnitza made great CCFL DDE's for my old E46 a few years back, they were an excellent product.

You don't have to modify the bases! There are 2 small tabs and 1 large... the bulb just goes in at different position.

Thanks
