Hey guys,

I tried to install a hid kit in my F30 and seems like any HID bulb never "clicks" when installing. (I've tried several different brands like Opt7)

The thing is, any other halogen that I install always clicks (phillips diamond vision, xtremevision, etc.) but not on HID

Any inputs on this issue? Maybe its housing issue?

Thanks a lot!

How can it be a housing issue when you just mentioned that all halogen bulbs click??

Have you even examined the HID bulbs you were installing and noticed if maybe the mounting flange may be thicker than the halogen's flange?

Anyways, those HID bulbs have no business in your halogen reflector housings!

Hmmm that makes sense. I'll check if its a flange issue

Yeah, those H7 HID bulbs use plastic flanges and are thicker than the halogen metal flanges. You really should put in some projectors with those bulbs because you will produce a lot of glare.

Yeah I actually gave up on HID and just went back to phillips diamond vision because it just doesn't make sense lol thanks a lot for your advice!

I have used HID kits before and have had issues with all brands, either flickering or fitment, ballast to big ect...

Found these and was a little skeptical at first but honestly the best Kit I have ever owned.

First of all the price is not bad at all comparing them to any quality HID Kit and in addition has a great warranty. They fit perfectly with no wobble on both H7 headlights/high beam and H8 Fogs.

The color is fantastic, the best way to describe the color is like the older Lexus and Infinity headlights, white with a small/tiny hint of blue, not "ghetto" by far. They turn on instantly with no need to warm up, No errors.

they fit perfectly into the headlight housing, the difference from Halogen to these LED's are incredible, I drove from Orlando to Miami 3.5hr drive at night and these lights gave me great confidence on the road, visibility is phenomenal and did not get any drivers flashing their lights at me, so in conclusion the glare is minimal.

I stopped next to a new 2016 Mercedes CLS equipped with their new LED adaptive headlights and the color was exactly the same.

i have to admit angel eyes and projection HID looks and performs the best, but if you are not in the market to spend a check on headlights, I highly recommend these.

Ill be making a post with before and after pictures & videos.
