Advert on eBay states RHD.

If you have a bulb warning light on is it for the dipped beam that are not working. Plug one of your OEM lights back in and see if it works again so then it can only be the new headlights.

Yes is does but when I posted the link a month back it was for left hand drive only. Whether or not they realised the market was us and changed them I don't know.

I'd do what dubvrs mentioned regards fitting one of your old lights back in to see if there's any difference and if it does work then you have faulty lights. hopefully you'll get it sorted.  :smiley:

If you have a multi meter or continuity tester you can check further.

If it was me I would remove the dipped beam bulb in you oem headlight and with the multi meter test which pins the cables go to on the main light connector and same on the depo lights to make sure they are on the same pins. Something is a miss for you to get bulb out warning.

I have before had to re pin jap spec RHD head lights on other cars before to work on uk cars.

Thanks mate you've been really helpful honestly thank you and that should explain the bulb warning light also it's a plug and play and they claim no faults. so I'm going to email the seller

Sorry excuse the silly mistake. I bought a set of tinted audi tt indicator lenses off these lot and it was so flimsy it broke and I had a mission getting them to refund. so it's not these guys who had the LHD lights  :doh:  :slap: idiot  :signLOL: sorry again  :ashamed:

Count how many pins you have in the head light connecting socket and do the same with the plug connector from the car wiring loom as this may be different amor arranged in the wrong pins.
don't want to read the whole thread again but do your original lights work properly?.
Checked fuses?.

Hey sorry for the late reply checked the pins all of them looks correct i think i need vag com so far sidelights works, full beam works like a dream and high beam/ flash light works too just not the low beam to summary this up all of the bulbs work but but the headlight does nothing for low beam the sidelights go on.

You need an auto electrician to have a look or a competent garage.

Where you based?. @Vithu06
