THANK YOU! I was just about to drive there and see if I could get some installed but now you are giving me second thoughts.

Do you know their street address? I can't find that. I know they are in East Elmhurst. How were lights by the way, when they did work. What color temp did you have?

You need this:

Expensive but the brightest.

Does this happen with the regular bulb in there or are you talking about the LED replacements doing that? You might have something else going on with your X.

I had the error because I was wiring the AEs as DRLs. I have it figured out now. I just need to complete the wiring.

I bought a set of those ebay LED bulbs and they work fine. Had them for about 4-5 months. I actually still have it installed on one side and the other I have the angelibrights - from my comparo. I still haven't changed them out - even the DRL bulbs (which I have turned off now, anyways).
