Hmmm, I don't think that the H8 lamps from Bimmian fit very well, at least the current inventory anyway. Perhaps we will see pictures and a video of the fit once a new batch comes in.

I hope that this does get sorted, because on a positive note, the whiteness and the brightness of the lamps was quite good, and a lot cheaper than going LED.

Well, I think it is fair to assume that we will likely never see the video and pics of the Bimmian Xenesis H8 halo lamps fitting properly as promised. I had hoped to see that perhaps the lamps I got were unique in the fact that they fit poorly.

On that note, I will be looking at other non-LED, H8 lamp options.

Must be either a month so busy there just isn't 5 minutes to spare or they are full of crap. Very disappointing. Thanks for posting and keeping us aware of the issue.

I thought the comment that he would do it at "his convenience" was rather arrogant for a person looking to promote sales.

My Hoens fit great!
