I think this pic is the problem:



Notice how the red wire does not match up with the red wire on the other side. What I had to do was flip it over, and when you do that it wont clip in place so you have to wrap some tape around it. Does that make any sense?

You may have also blown a fuse. I know when I had them connected wrong when I turned the lights on the fuse to the headlights blew. Not sure if the foglights did the same for you but you should check that out also

its alive!!!!!

weird thing supposably I was suppose to swap due to polarity not matching...I did it with it not clicking first and it blew and then I did with the click and it worked

so it was the fuse first and then it was the polarity...but I got it working !!

glad to see you get it working. So the polarity was off but you also had a fuse blown?

yup ....

well first I put them in without it clicking and I blew the fuse for my fogs ..I then changed the fuse and blew it again ....so I changed the fuse and clicked them in and they worked

only one question though one of the lights looks yellowish compared to the other one which looks white ...any reason why ?

may be its time for new bulbs from far away they look fine but from upclose you see the difference .....so overall Im happy that they work ...but not happy that trhey dont match ..is there anything I can do about this?




sorry for the bad pics
