I'll take out my iJDM's today and give you an update on how those are holding up. I've had em for a good 2-3 months now.

I'm sorry I didn't read the whole thread since its too long, but by reading some posts it seems others are having problems with these lights too.


I put these on several months ago after getting them through the 2nd group buy. It was fine for the first few months but after that I got the "check parking lift on front left/right" info on my gauge. Is this because there is some problem? Do I need to remove these and install stock ones asap?


btw I have error message for both sides, but they are both working still.

I would pull them out asap or at least check. I had check error msg that would come on and off.. Then I found the burnt LED, which melted part of the socket..

Godamnit!! The side markers were okay, but these burned the four sockets in the headlight. The outer two ones came off and I was able to swtich them to stock LEDs but the inner two won't even come out. I was trying to pull out the inner two and wasn't able to and in the process ripped the wire to the socket.

Most likely . . I wonder if they sell the socket separately or if you have to go looking through junk yards

I am having trouble with the LEDs I bought from a member here. I guess I should go down to the garage and check mine to see if they are burnt too or just blown from normal use. Wish I visited the site more often, as I would have known. UGH
