100% my thoughts.

Thanks you guys. I got it fixed. Pain in the *** to close it after though.

The red circles show the fasteners you need to remove to take out the battery cover molding. Once that is out you just remove two fasteners to take out the cowl and you will now have access to the fuse box. Push in the two tabs at the top of the fuse box and slide the unit out. There are two more tabs at the bottom and the lid will come off revealing the fuses. The one you want is at the top left and is the second one down. That should solve all your problems!

Is anyone having trouble aiming these? The passenger side adjusts no problem, but the driver side adjustment mechanism doesn't appear to even be connected to anything. I saw the note about not spinning the adjuster more than 3 full turns and did not exceed that.

Mine seemed to adjust ok. Took it out to my work at night and aimed at the semi dock. Measured the distance and height and adjusted as best as I could. Mine seemed to respond and only took a few turns of the screwdriver.

I feel your pain. I tried to adjust mine tonight (still not there). The passenger side wasn't bad to get to. The driver's side with my supercharger clocked where it is makes adjusting the screw hell. I have a low profile ratcheting screwdriver but am only able to do small incremental turns.

Can those who have adjusted theirs verify you go clockwise to "lower" the beams? Almost every other headlight on the market you go counter-clockwise to lower. Am I crazy? Also, it would be the same for the right and left headlight? I.e. it doesn't change based on what side you're adjusting? Thx for any feedback.

Hey. Anyone noticing some of the drls leds not lighting up? My led drl strip will have an led or two out then look again later, the strip is lit up completely.

I haven’t noticed anything like that. I tend to look at the reflections in the car in front of me a lot since installing these.

Does it do this more or less with the lights on or off? Or does it not matter? I wouldn’t think it would.

Does this occur with both headlights or only one? If both, do they occur at the same time with the described flickering?

Either you have a defective strip within the headlight or your wiring for the DRL needs to be resecured?

:tiphat:

I ordered mine in April and received them on the 18th of this month. Here's and imgur album of them on a Monterey Blue Z for anyone curious :)

It happened once and hasn't occured again. I had the lights off.
I wish I took a picture but I came out and there was what looked like two gaps in the drl on one side, drivers side. While driving I used my turn signal and back came the whole drl strip with no gaps. I haven't seen it again.

No fllickering, just two gaps in the drl strip on the drivers side. I havent seen it happen again since that once.

Okay, well that's good. It could be nothing, but it could also mean that that particular strip could be faulty inside the headlight.

I would strongly recommend you send an email to the company that shipped it to you to begin an email chain with documented time stamp. That way, in case it goes bad in the near future, you may be eligible for a warranty case. They may even consider sending you a replacement headlight now too. :)
