Got mine too, AZN you are an asset.

Before doing another GB wait a little bc people from the 1st one might sell theres if the colors dont match, don't like them, etc.

Thanks AZN, just got mine today too.

However, can someone tell me if they have the same problem as I do? The LED strip is too thick and cannot slip into the bulb slot. Please let me know if someone can get it installed.

Thanks!

Yeah push harder.. and then if it doesn't work, take the bulb out and turn it around then push it back in. For some reason it only works on a certain side.

It looks purplish in person. My headlights are hyper white bulbs and the lids set off a purple look so it looks off. Now I have to get HIDs..
