Yeah, that screams bad housing connection to me.

Something happen to me. OEM was the fix. My up and down on adjustors doesn't work on my right headlight.....

My beam pattern is odd. The top cut off steps down 2 times. Once over the passage side than again over the driver side. Strange.

I leveled the lights but that won't go away and I don't see what's causing it. I've believe I saw someone else post their light pattern which was the same. Anyone know why the step downs occur? Is it suppose to?

My beam pattern is weird also the driver side is maxed out to be pointed up but is somehow pointed down. Do I need to make adjustments the two screws the headlight is mounted on? (Adjusters underneath headlight )

Sounds like you do.

I twisted out the extenders on the bottom bolts about 3/8 inch to line up the top of the light to the fender and hood better. There was too much gap at first.

Then when I aligned the lights moving them up with the adjusters was without issue.

I think I'm overall balanced now just the weird stepping. Looking around online it seems it is purposeful to light up the passenger side ditch and helping to not blind oncoming traffic on the driver side.

Thanks for verifying, looks like I'm gonna have to play around with it when I change out my bumper!

Does anyone have GP Thunder chrome turn signals installed? I'm getting turn signal malfunction errors when I have them installed. At first I thought there was a problem with the bulbs so then I got new replacements. Now only 1 out of the 4 bulbs are working.

GP thunder says they're 1156 bulbs and Cross Reference: 7506, 3497, 1073, 1141

I wasn't sure either and read this:

http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/...1156-7506-bulb

In the end I wasn't sure the GP's were the same as the PY21W. So I forked out for the Osram ones.

Massive problem

So i bought these on 7/6/16 right when they came out. i got them with the h7 upgrade. i was all happy with them till now. i came to conclusion they are not built as well as they should be. i wake up one morning and my left headlight is out. only after a couple months. so i take off the cover in the wheel weld and i see that there is corrosion. as you can see in picture. i shake the cables and the whole plastic cover comes off and exposes the h7. (on computer so post under will have pictures from phone) now i have a 2015 bmw with a head light out for the money i payed not happy with the product. i also cant find just replacement headlight easy. i have emailed customer support so waiting for response.

Looking good Brennan.

Sorry to hear that mateusz. Have you heard of anyone else with that upgrade having issues? I try to wait to purchase things until a v2 or when most of the kinks have been worked out :\

I swapped my turn signal housing for the OEM one yesterday and it's been working great since. Did any of you guys having issues with it also swap the passenger side just to be safe? I haven't but I'm thinking about doing it

I haven't switched the passenger yet cause I wanted to see if the condensation was linked.

I haven't had any more condensation btw.

I wrote USR and they sent a video explaining the connector issue.
. I'll try it later.

I know i should of waited but I also wanted to have the eyes. when they first came out they offered a h7 upgrade. so the vendor installed with the h7. i just hope any1 who lives in a area where they salt streets keep an eye on this so it dont happen to you.
