Here another shot tonight when driving home.

I will say, there is a BIG difference now with the lights. A bright white light :D
We cant really see it in the pictures, but in real it's just WOW :eyebulge:

D8S left, D3S right :



Same here, D8S left, D3S right :



I'll go to my Dealer soon to adjust the lights, the projectors are not set properly. Left is set too in the left direction and right to in the right direction.

And also another problem now with the new HID. Low beam is OK on both lights, but on one light, when I put High Beam, the entire bulb goes OFF.

Here a vid :

Lamp or ballast problem?

You can actually check if it is lamp failure: simply switch lamps.

Well, now I have really really expensive triple led headlights on my Lexus NX f-sport.. That's now the only thing that I gone mis. They are so bright that you even can't read traffic signs because of the way to bright reflections (but cool tough)

:lol:, Caniggia can do anything, maybe he can add your LEDs remotely ... ? :D :lol:

The problem was due to a second power cable that arrived on one Ballast, I need to cut that cable and then it was OK.

Guys,

I think you're going to take me for a fool, but last night, I drove again on dark and wet roads and ... I'm still not satisfied with the lights at all ... :frusty:

I will say, the light improvement is really good now, you can drive without any problem, but, IMO the power needs to be raised a bit again.

I drove behind a brand new Mercedes, and DAMN, the lights on the car was so Amazing :eyebulge:
I know they have now the brand new LED light system, but WOW, this lights are really bright with a great white color.

maybe there are some EU regulations for the headlights this time....

Guys I'm telling you a thousand time, believe it or not Mustang is a poor designed car for our european standards. Lot of fails.
EU regulations is just an excuse.
