I fitted mine yesterday, definitely better than the hid kit from hids direct I had in them.Going to buy another set for full beam and a spare set in case they ever stop working.I got no bulb out warnings Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk
How have you guys put them in ? LEDs positioned top and bottom or left and right?

LEDs positioned top and bottom or left and right?They only go in one way Mine come in 2 pieces. You fit the mount into the headlamp the push the bulbs into the mount. Even they are very secure in the mount they don't seem to have a set position that they lock into and can be twisted to change the bulb orientation

Will try and get them changedUPDATE Just had a quick check if the lights as the bulb error came on 5 mins into the school run. Only one of the led lights has a working fan. I guess that's the cause of my problems.
