hi guys got a wierd bit of an issue im pretty sure its the aftermarket xenons i have installed not activating the low beams...ive compared with others and theirs works with the unlock and low beams with their halogens....is there any way to get it to work with my aftermarket xenons? as thats the main reason i got it in the first place lol...would love for it to come on with my xenons as they are quite bright and would help in dark places

i was hoping it would be an easier fix lol why is it that halogens come on automatically (as said by others in the facebook group im in) but when i put aftermarket xenons in they only show sidelights?

simply because the Xenon have a starter and a bulb that doesn't like to be on for just a few seconds... it seriously shortens the life of the setup when used like that... one f the reasons you never see oem headlights that have 2 separate xenon projectors for the low beam and the highbeam... they use a single projector for the dual xenon setup that just flicks a shield electronically that adjusts the beam pattern of the projector housing.

so it's by design.
