    HID Conversion Problems-2014 Sport

    That is why I ended up getting an OEM setup. I figured if the ballast came stock in a new car, they would be reliable. I just couldnt keep on installing, uninstalling, and checking to make sure my headlights were on. I dont need to get pulled over for stuff like that. I am happy I got away...

    HID Conversion Problems-2014 Sport

    I have the potting material, and will be doing it this weekend. I needed to make sure they worked fine on my truck first. They are mounted up high, and upside down in the engine bay. Im not worried about it. I got a car wash today, and drove in heavy rain yesterday...not water anywhere near...

    HID Conversion Problems-2014 Sport

    Update I received my AMP: OEM HID SYSTEM tonight from The Retrofit Source and so far so good. It works in Auto the few times I tried it tonight, and fired overtime I asked them to. I will have to see how they work on the way to work in the morning. I am powering them with a harness. The...

    HID Conversion Problems-2014 Sport

    Andrew has been great with switching out parts. I just can't do that for two weeks until it finally works. In my case, I was driving a 50k SUV with paper plates and a malfunctioning headlight. Frustrating.

    HID Conversion Problems-2014 Sport

    I will know soon. I too was convinced by the DIY HID tutorial by a member here to try coolbulbs,and was really disappointed. I have ordered some "HIR" bulbs (amazon)and also a kit from The Retrofit Source. I ordered one of their OEM kits (not cheap), with can-bus. I am willing to try...

    I have returned my coolbulbs.com kit and ordered an oem kit from TRS. If this kit doesn't work, I'm not sure anything will. I will post my results when I get the new kit, and get it installed.

    HID Conversion Problems-2014 Sport

    I just sent my kit back to coolbulbs, I could not deal with the unreliable headlights. The stock halogens suck, but they turn on...and stay on. May look at another kit, but need to have something reliable.

    HID Conversion Problems-2014 Sport

    I have tried everything. Changing bulbs out, ballast, installing a relay...capacitors. Nothing works. Unless I have gotten two bad ballast and two bad bulbs I dont know. This kit was one of the most expensive systems, but looks alot like the much cheaper DDM systems. I just got off the...

    HID Conversion Problems-2014 Sport

    Hello Guys, I am the proud new owner of a 2014 Ruby Red Explorer Sport. A week after driving around with the horrible headlights, I decided to do an upgrade. I ordered a 9005 6k kit from coolbulbs.com after reading the great DIY write up. Since the first day I have had problems. Bulbs not...
