Make sure it's bulbs you need first. Try swapping the bulbs from one side to the other to see if the problem switches sides. We carry D2S Replacement Bulbs for your car in either 6000k or 8000k. These will ugprade the color temperature to a more pure white light output or aqua color for the 8000k.

I have the 8000k from you guys and the have very good light output, i would recommend them. My 8000k seems to be purple.

how about Halos from JleviSW, all my halos are out, do i need replacements or new ballast or all new kit?

To the OP, I ordered the 6k from Jlevi and they are great. They have a slight purplish hue to them and honestly, if you go with 8k, your light output will be degraded. I recommend the 6k if anything.

Could be several issues. Check the fuse and ECU taps first to make sure your connections are solid.

same thing happened to me last week. couldn't fix the issue. Nick from Jlevi even sent me a new relay and that didn't help. I just tapped them to my foglights, and now they work.

If they work with a different power source, then there was an issue with your ECU tap. Glad you got them working though.

yea my setup is thru the foglights with a relay! relay is good, connection 12v source is good, though no source of power coming from the halos! i used a light tester!

just don't get bulbs from visionbulbs
they suck and their bulbs suck

zerogravityE46 · 02-13-2008, 04:52 PM

okay, and yea 6k is the way i am going with.

JleviSW, does your LED license plate stay fairly lit when installed and turns off in a few minutes when the car is off or armed?
