2012 LED\HID Headlights in 06 Help?!
Hey guys, i just "installed" the OEM LED HID lights that my beautiful girlfriend got me for my birthday
But i can seem to get the LEDs to work at all... Flasher relay installed so blinkers are working fine, its just the LEDs don't come up in any position not on auto not on on not on parking lights... Nada...
Any suggestions as to what should i do to get them to work?
And also, the brackets that i've modified, seem to fit only on two holes... any idea as to where to get the brackets that fit and how much they might be?
Thank you in advance for your responses and help.

Probably should start by giving us detail about where you got the headlight? Ebay? Sewell? You might be missing the connector for the LED as most ebay ones doesn't come with the connector, simple fix, and if they were wired for the 2012 then you would need to re-pin them to have the LED turn on.

That thread has more info about re-pinning the headlight to work with older models if you went the non-sewell way.

I would double check all the connection and if it still doesn't work then I would call Sewell. Got mines (not loaded) from them and didn't have any problem. Could be an issue with the LED, if everything else is working.

I personally removed the bulb because I didnt like the look of the car with the DRLs on, with hid or not. Makes the car look cross eyed (as dumb as that sounds).
The newer LED headlights look amazing ofcourse. Speaking of which I should be getting my new headlights in the mail today, cant wait.
