I installed LED headlights, like the previous poster, and can confirm output isn't as good as halogens (at least not the ones I'm using).
Recommend HIDs instead, unless you see a specific LED option that you confirm has good light output. Good luck and let us know what you end up with.

My right turn signal isn't working. At first I could just hit the headlight a couple times then the led lights would turn back on. Now the leds won't go on. Would it be a short/wiring/ or the bulbs. Does anyone know which bulbs to buy? A link would be much appreciated! Thanks!

I suppose if the LEDs are wired up in series, a single bulb dying could cause all of them to not light up. But not sure how you would find the faulty bulb without testing each individually outside of the headlight. Interested to hear other people's insights. I'm not an expert by any means.

How do these compare to bavgruppe option? It seems like you can just buy the dtm rings and install in your oem headlights from my understanding of their products page on their site.

Please Help
I baught a pair of rolling gears headlights thought it would solve all my problems with horrible stock halogen headlights. I love the DTM look DRL despite it being abit tacky in direct sunlight I can cope with that. My issue is the projectors them selves, why dont my projectors apear lit whilst on. Not just day, at night time. There is a beam patten how ever they do not apear lit to pedestrians and oncoming traffic. If i stand in front of my car looking at it dead on my projectors do not look lit unless i kneel and bend to like 30cm off the ground then it looks great. I dont understand ive being to 5 garages paid for alligning 5 times all garages do beam patten bit difderent all round about same but never do the projectors apear lit whilst looking at the car in front from any angle other than practicaly laying on the floor. I have tried HiD kit. Phillips bulbs and the ones they came with can some one please tell me what the hell is going on i dont get it. My friend baught some projectors off ebay for £7.99 and they apear lit up when on jesus christ. Any other car i see on opposite side a road had a full solid cirle of light inside there angel eyes or car that havent got angel eyes and just projector has solid whilte circle when on. Please help.
Ive seen mobillity schooters with better lights than this what is going on |

Also is it because the projectors are crap the reason they dont seem lit when i look at my car dead on unless i crouch down then it looks good? Is it just the projectors and not the headlight its self?

Just got my brand new set of these lights. Was super stoked to install them, just to find out one of the halos doesn't light up. Bummer. I've emailed the company hoping they will fix this.
P.s has anyone hooked these up with the automatic leveling? |

Auto level motor
Sorry to revive an old post but I need help.
I bought same headlight which came with manual headlight adjuster and another adaptor to connect to electric headlight adjuster. Do I need to take out the motor from old headlight? |
