I'm having the same issue with my left low beam. Can't work it out, the supplier reckons its in upside down, but it can only go in one way. I'm just about ready to bin them and go back to bulbs

Yes. Right side is brighter than left. Also the light focus on the left hand side. Car infront of me dont have any problem but car in the left lane get annoyed.

The kick up to the left is pretty standard... you can see it on mine with the original globes in it. I imagine that with HIDs that kick up becomes very bright, hence the annoyed left lane car.

Ok, I have completed the HID install, it was painful and annoying

First you will need to rotate your wheels so you can access the torx screws

Then you will need to remove these, there are 5 you need to remove, this will allow you to move the inner liner back, dont worry they bend

Then the tricky part begins you will need to reach up inside and remove the back dust covers, then disconnect the power, unclip the metal clamp and remove the bulb, you can barely see a single thing when doing this so its a lot of feeling around.

once you have done that you can then plug the HID ballast into the power, once this is completed it best to plug the bulb in while hanging outside the headlight to test, if it doesn't turn on the first time don't panic, reverse the plug for power and it should come on, it should look like this.

Once you are happy, tuck the cables in the headlight housing and screw on the ballast which replaces the old dust cover.

Repeat the process for the other side and done :)

Also keep in mind you might get pinned by the police for these, for me I dont drive a great deal at night so I am happy to run the risk


Hi there, I was just wondering how these HID lights are holding up? Did you encounter any issues with them?
Thanks
