Default Aftermarket Pojector Headlight Problem...Serious!

ok,

Heres the prob. a month ago I installed some sweet aftermarket projector headlights. Now the actual headlights dont work...The Parking lights work, The turning signals work as do the brights...
Just wondering if anyone has any solutions (besides going back stock ) well I enclosed a pic of them, If that helps....I have checked the fuses and the bulbs all is fine. It's Wierd And frustrating ....

THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!

First remove the bumper and remove the projectors to check for any leakage to see if water got in there and burned out the bulbs.
If there is no leakage, drill as many holes in those as you can so yourself and no one else can use them. Then throw those pieces of shit away and get some real projectors that actually work........like TYC or go back to stock.
Those projectors you have right now are ugly, nasty and gay.

What the hell? Two projector lenses? Which are your "low" beams, and which is high?

I agree about the trash suggestion, or eBay. . . someone will want them

From Left to Right:

{Turn signal} {Clear Bulb that works as parking light} {Low Beam} {High Beam}

Well I know you all say there crap, (which Might be true, Really Cheap) but they worked fine for me and I could actually see really well, I went with these instead of halos becuase alot of ppl on this board said you cant see Shizz with them. So I guess I might be forced to take them off since High beams piss people off, and thats the only way I can see now...I'll look at them again today and hopefully fix them.

THANKS!

maybe the gound wired has problem since that cable is very sensitive. is true what they all said u really need to look at the tyc projectors, i wish i had a 6th gen just for the headlights they have. not urs.

If you have a 5th gen, TYC makes projectors for them now. They can be ordered from autodynamic.com or someone sells them on ebay pretty cheap...just gotta do a search for TYC.
