Mine is at the post office now, which is literally 2 streets away. I wish I could just walk over there and get it, rather than wait for them to show up.

I hope thats the case but I worry that the issue may be that these bulbs run so hot.

Maybe we could ask TC6 to make us some water cooling systems, haha!
 
Hey JLC, will we void any GB warranty if we move the contact pins to their correct location since they were initially put together in the incorrect location? I don't want to move the contact pins to get them to even work, then have them start flickering.
 
Neither of mine will light up, and I did the little move the wire rig. Pretty sure my pins are going to snap at some point, as they get bent up when removing the bulb.

Can we just return the non-fitting bulbs for some that should be plug n play?

Was your parking brake off?

Plug your OE bulbs in and make sure that you didn't blow a fuse or something

OH NOO :( I put mine in the original DTRL slot and one (for sure) started to flicker (I was driving and saw it on the reflection from the car in front of me while stopped at a light so didn't get a chance to see if both were flickering). It wasn't a rapid on/off but rather a slow one. This started to occur after about 20 minutes of driving with DTRL & low beam on. So I turned them off and drove for 2 hrs. Now I turned them back on to take videos and they're not flickering. I'm running them for a while to see if it'll start to flicker.

I have a feeling that the issue is they just run too hot.

Don't worry guys, this GB is backed with warranty. I just think it could be damaged from the USPS delivery. I'm switching over to boxes as opposed of bubble mailers. Will get in contact for a replacement soon.

If there was a problem, both should be flickering. But I only hope it was damaged during transit. Thank you.

Others are having this flickering issue as well I don't think that shipping was the problem. Do you know what the power draw IE wattage for these bulbs is?
