you cant replace the xenon, unless you ditch the ballast/igniter , change the housing and wire it up differently.. ... - .- -.

I have not had any errors.

As these are on the high beams, they are only ever used rarely for flashing to let way and I've never used the high beam on motorways.

Life is complicated already, let's not make it more complicated LOL. It looks nice and just like any other mod you would do to your car
if you go in nitty gritty of whether it's legal or not or whether the insurance will be void then each mod will make it void. Current:

Fitted these the others day.

Is it normal for them to flicker for a few seconds when the lights are first switched on ?

Think I'll be putting the old ones back in.

hmm.. really curious that mine didn't do this..

Just went out and checked it again and mine don't flicker.. it may mean the bulb check may have been switched off.. but i.thoight the high beams weren't on the beam check..

over changed all interior bulbs to cob led and not had any issue and also changed the standard cree bulb on the reverse and haven't had any issue either. Current:

I thought it was a bulb check making them flicker.
Not sure my ocd can cope with that Laughing

Have fitted these on scotcruz recommendation, along with led front fog and reverse lights. All 3 flicker on ignition on for a few seconds Rolling Eyes
Guess I'll be saving up for iidtool
