DEPOs fitted

So I got my Depos fitted today. I'm absolutely over the moon with them, they transform the car.

Today has been bitter sweet though as per usual not everything goes to plan.

I had been having some problems with the beam levelling on my old halogen lights, the car isn't communicating with the levelling motors on the DEPO headlights, so has to go back to the specialist to get investigated.

For now, I'm happy the lights are in and working, even if they aren't levelling.

Also please exuse the dirt of the car, it's impossible to keep a car clean in January.

Enjoy

Seems you are having the same gremlins as me, but I have been assured that the headlights are not at fault.

My BMW specialist.

Yours could have triggered the fault whilst fitting

BrennanF30 - looking good, hope you get the levelling sorted.

Did the main beam reflector line up properly once you'd got them fitted?

Looks 100000x better Aaron, can't believe how good the quality of the picture is from your phone though!
If I tried to get my iPhone to focus on the LED rings it would darken the rest of the photo
