do you have any recommendation for D1S bulb 8000K? I was looking at some Philips ones but they only get up to 6000K

There are other HID vendors on the forum that you can check with who carry different brands and I'd advocate supporting forum vendors here first. They'll typically take better care of you.

194 wedge LEDs for your sidemarker. Generally I'd suggest our V4 model, but I do know there's one variant of the clear sidemarkers that are floating around that have a thicker clear lens where the V4 don't fit. If you want to play it safe, you can use our V3 model.

one of a led light broke inside the LED housing and I guess it fell inside the housing is there a way to remove it? I've seen someone take apart a headlight apart but does the eyebrow come out too? if not I'm not going to bother with taking the head light apart I was able to put a new led inside with no space issues and everything is working fine.. its just the fact i know it roaming around in the eyebrow makes me want it out.

We've had a few issues on some vehicles of the solder weakening on the head from surge events. Our current units have a higher grade solder which should mitigate this somewhat, but we've already got our fully covered gel substrate V4 currently being live tested by some test users and forum mods. We're hoping to release these in a month or so. The high temp gel holds the components in place on surge events till it passes and solder resolidifies. Also reduces ambient heat transfer through encapsulation.

samething happen to mine. my led complete fell inside while i was installing it did not want to push it in too tight so it was loose. i end up taking the whole headlight housing unit out. and shack it until it can off out of any socket. for me it fell out the turn signal socket.

These maybe better then the other ones I purchased.

Hello AZN, would you beso kind a list once again all possible light sources that can be replaced withyour LED solution (inside and outside) and with which particular model? I’m still not sure if I got everything and I only want to order once and get it done.
I would actuallysuggest to add that list to your first post, as it will be useful for futurecustomers as well! Thanks!

Received the wedge bulbs this past weekend for the parking/city lights. I took out the bulb from the headlight housing, then couldn't figure out how to put the LED's in place of the oem lightbulb. Can anyone help me out?

how do I remove the OEM bulb from the socket? Do I just pull on the bulb? I tried pulling on it, but I didnt want to squeeze and pull on the bulb too hard cause i dont want to break it.

use fibre cloth or tissue to remove them or you may prefer thin plastic glove
