well heres my dilemma..the small ring on the drivers side still wont fully turn on, meaning its on but only half of it is on, but is real dim...I thought it could be them elements because the weathers cold (20 degrees) but pretty much factored that out today..I drove around for an 1 1/2 today with them on, all the rings lit up nice and bright except for the small one on the drivers side?

Umnitza what is the deal with this? When I turned them on the first time everything was perfectly fine..now this is happening? please help me out..or does anybody else know what could be the problem..

Polo,

You never got emails? That's absolutely not right, but you know, I've got all the emails I've ever sent to you and I've NEVER not replied to you on any of them.

Maybe your junk mail took it - we've had issues with that - and you didn't look in there.

I don't know what the deal is.

Our deal was not to get the DDEs for free but to get your headlight back with everything it had on it and in one piece.

I have all the emails you've ever sent. I thought we were on good terms, I had no idea why you stopped emailing us, but I figured you were busy with work.

I dunno...IMO i feel umnitza should have done more R&T in colder climates b4 releasing these....I have my feelings that the reliability on these will be below par......

only time will tell tho. But seeing as how the troubles people are having just installing them, makes me wonder

my two cents

maybe because his camera is of higher quality and therefore shows off the lights better

Why do yours look more white and Lithiumax's look more blue. Are those the 2 different color temps?

Lithiumax's are the prototypes. They are much more blue in person. I think they both look good.

R&D not R&T

Seriously, we did know the cold weather was going to be an issue. We told people in advance.

There is only so much we can do.

Turn on your lights if it's cold, that will warm them up.

Question here.......
I just finished reading how to install them, but was wondering how the passenger side was connected? Yellow goes to battery for that side too? Is the cable long on that ballast? Where do you put that "black box"?

I still wanna know why some look blue while others are white. TitaniuMax03 look the best so far IMO, but is that because he knows how to take a picture and capture the correct/true color of the light!
