They light up and immediately shut off. I turn them off, then back on and the same thing happens. They won't remain on until after the 3rd/4th attempt.. any ideas? We have contacted the sellers but have yet to hear from them.
^ same for me. I contacted the company and they stated that a lot of people with Nissan/Infinity call in about the same problem. He said that the silver connector that screws on the bulb itself is the prob. The little prongs in there have to be bent inward to accommodate a different bulb.

I did try bending them inward a bit with a small flathead screwdriver but that also didn't work. I also didn't feel comfortable bending them so I didn't go very far. Bulbs are way cheaper than that part I'm sure..

So I've already shipped the bulbs back to the company and will get some that are compatible.
