   Great headlights but throw the directions away!, April 6, 2013

   These are great headlights, very cool and bright have gotten lots of compliments. They are pretty easy to install as long as you do not follow the directions…they were atrocious, it just requires some simple wiring. I will walk you through the steps, I have a F150 so if you have a different vehicle the steps might be a little different but the wiring should be the same. First, using a phillips head remove the backsplash guard on the inside of the headlight then there are three 10mm screws you need to undo, 1 on top and 2 on the side that are revealed once the backsplash is removed. Then just pop out the headlight, there is a clip on top to do that. The high beam and low beam are just plug and play but you will need to wire the halo/led into one of the running lights do this to the small bulb that is mostly likely sitting on the outside(note; you can do this to the bigger running light bulb that also has the turn signal included but its easier to do it to the small one.) Now you need to remove all the electric tape on the wire running to the small bulb as you are going to need to splice those 2 wires (note; these wires should be brown and black). Once you have removed the tape to the smaller running light cut the brown and black wire about 3 to 4 in from the bulb. Strip back about have an inch from both wires. Now is the part where you would need to use a volt meter to determine which wire is positive but I’m going to tell you so you won’t need to bother(black is negative and brown is positive in this case, again different manufacturer may be different color). Now take both ends (the end coming from the bulb and the end coming from the truck) of the black wire that you just cut and wire nut them together with all of the black wires coming from the headlight (there should be 4 coming from the headlight) you may want to wrap some electrical tape around the wire nut and wire to keep it secure. Now take the 2 brown wires and wire nut them together with all of the whites and reds coming from the headlight as these are your positives( there should be 2 reds and 2 whites coming from the headlight) and again repeat the electrical tape step.Now all you have to do is reattach the headlight to the truck by bolting the screws back in. And again different trucks maybe a little different but the wiring should be the same I just wanted to post this because the instructions are awful. I hope this helps if you have any further questions feel free to ask me and I will do my best.

   The only Down fall i have to this produce is the low beam lighting, its very dim. i dont know if changing the bulbs will change that or not. but the bulbs they came with arent very quality. other then that, i love them!

   More Than Meets the Eye! Cool Dual Halo LED Lights!, December 7, 2011

   I purchases these lights two weeks ago because I wanted some cool dual halo LED headlights for my 2006 Ford F-150 pick-up. I am very pleased with these lights. I had purchased the ANZO single halo LED headlights before I purchased these, thinking they were dual halo lights. I definitely liked the SPYDER lights better because of the dual halo appearance. The SPYDER lights also gave off better lighting. The dual halo lights and side LED lights will turn on when you switch the parking lights on. They also stay on when you turn on the main headlights or high-beam lights. However, you will not see the halo lights luminate until the day gets darker. At least, I couldn’t see them. The wiring requires some splicing, but not difficult to do. I recommend using a wire stripper/pliers for the wiring process. I will try to post some pictures soon. If you want to pimp your ride or make your truck look like a Transformer, these are the lights for you.

   Glad I did it myself, October 25, 2012

   This review is from: Philips D4S Xenon HID Headlight Bulb, Pack of 1 (Automotive)

   My headlight bulb on my ’07 Lexus ES350 began blinking out about a year prior to getting this bulb. When I went to the Lexus dealer they told me that the bulb was about to go and it should be replaced. They quoted me a price close to $300 dollars. ($200 for the bulb plus labor) I thought that price was ridiculous and drove for a year with a headlight that went out every time after about 5 minutes of the light coming on. When I saw this bulb for this price I was hesitant about getting it but figured I’d give it a try. I read my car manual and decided to try changing it myself. I’m so glad I did. IT WAS THE EXACT SAME BULB THAT WAS FACTORY INSTALLED!!! It took me about 15 minutes to install the bulb and I saved myself $250 dollars…

   This product worked on my Lexus ES350 – model year 2007, August 11, 2012

   This review is from: Philips D4S Xenon HID Headlight Bulb, Pack of 1 (Automotive)

   I ordered this product for my Lexus ES350. I bought the car used, and the left headlight went out. I had that replaced at the local dealership for ~$400-$500. My son was stopped by the police in NY on a recent family vacation driving my ES350 for the right headlight. He had to have it replaced with a record of either a mechanic or a receipt showing purchase of the product to prevent a ticket. To reduce the expense (!!!) I purchased it from Amazon and installed it. It worked just fine.

   Here is some information on it from the following url «[…]». For your convenience, here are the instructions for replacing it from that website.

   1. Remove the plastic HID socket cover by turning it counter-clockwise.

   2. Remove the silver metal socket fitting attached to the braided cable by turning counter-clockwise about 45 degrees and pulling towards you.

   3. There’s a U-shaped set spring retainer that has kind of curled circle ends. This holds the bulb assembly in place by locking into notches on either side at roughly 11:00 & 1:00 on the housing. Pinch those two curled ends towards each other and pull them out and down to clear the notches and swing the retainer downward. This will release the bulb in the very center of the unit.

   4. Pull the bulb out by it’s base. It’s about 3″ long and comes straight out. Don’t touch the glass if you intend to reuse the bulb.

   5. The Toyota HID bulb is part # 90981-20024 (for my 2007 ES350).

   6. Holding the new bulb by the base and without touching the glass, push the bulb back into the hole. There are notches & tabs in the base and mount that must match. Just rotate the bulb until it catches.

   7. Reset the retaining spring by swinging it up and pushing it in while pinching the curled ends a bit. Release the ends when they lock into the metal notches on the housing. Make sure the retainer is secure before proceeding.

   8. Reattach the metal socket fitting by pushing in at and turning clockwise 45 degrees from roughly a 10:00 to a 12:00 position.

   9. Reattach the plastic cover by turning it clockwise.

   That’s all there is to it.
