And they get brighter and don't fully get to their potential until about 20 hours, that's when all the salts and stuff really start to mix well
So if I'm understanding what you are saying, its that these do not need to be retrofitted as badly as the stock lights?

Yes basically.. These are better then OEM.. But far from great.. The output is not close to a proper retrofitted winjet.. But they are better then oem

I've had my bumper off 20 times at least.. Still no issue, in fact all the cars I've ever done have no issues either.. I can get the front bumper off in about 5 mins now with out laying on my back to get to the bottom clips and 2bolts.. It's not that bad, when putting it on, I work one side at a time making sure the bumper fits in the slot perfectly.. If it doesn't fit in there, it will not fit perfect and have a gap

Mine is popping off now, you suggest get one side in first, I've been lining up fastening the centre then clipping in the sides and they keep popping off. Taken bumper off 3 times now.

I set the bumper on, then hold the very edge of the bumper, get down so I can see the top of the bumper and the slot it has to fit in.. It's very easy to get the clip to fit over the slot, causing it not to stay in

going to order a full bi-xenon retrofit from TRS. will consider doing a how-to. I know TRS gives great incentives for doing so.
