I don't have the FM radio problem and there's a bit unbalanced brightness but not serious!

The brightness issue was due to a bad matching batch, not our fault, but instead the manufacturer of one of the compenents. We had never had an issue with the manufacturer before, so we left most of the testing to them, on this component. Now we do more extensive testing before they ship, just to be safe.
The FM issue will have a simple DIY fix hopefully by the end of the following week.
We hope everyone has a great 4th of July!(although many on here are not American...you guys can still enjoy the day!)

Yeah but you do agree that if it's not serious and worth the trouble fo shipping them back, you have to agree that for this kind o money there shoudn't be any. It should have been perfect.

For this kind of money, we sure want perfect stuff. But I am too lazy to do the uninstall and ship them back for another pair of aib... ...
Instead i got problems with the fittings. Looking incorectly at the picture and not reading the instruction right, i tried the 1st time the 1st method, and instead unscrewing the round thingie as shown in the instructions i unscrewed the housing that adjusts the beam for left lane driving and right lane driving as shown in the owners manual...and i did move that knob slightly and after i realised the mistake i now have the driver's main beam pointing slightly downwords than the right one. At 1st i thought i didn't fit back the xenon bulb but i think i just made a mistake there on that knob...hope i'll get it at the same level with the passenger one.
Also when i 1st turned them on one of the leds (from the driver's side) blinked a couple of times till it went fully lit. And that's it. Gave me a scary moment.
I just checked the setting on the "driving on the left" or "on the right" and it appears that shifting that knob from left to right makes the main beam tilt upword and downwords. Is this true or i'm just delirious?!
And here's one for you guys: The manual states at page 118 Xenon headlights that if you drive on the right (like i am right? or any other european) then the knob must be pushed to the innerredges of the car (to the middle). I agree that i played with the one on the driver's side so that one was messed up but i haven't opened the one on the passenger side. And now i did and guess what the knob was tilted on the outeredges of the car (for left lane driving as the manual states). So how can this be?!?
Guys that drive your car on the right, AND with the steering on the left
please tell me how is that knob positioned on your cars?! I'm a bit confused right now...thanx!!!

Anyway....the headlights werea pain to get out really. I had to get out the caps of the space we had to work in, before i got the headlights out cuz either way i couldn't take them out. Also reallignament was a pain...but the biggest problem was the bulbs, take them out in that tight space OMG...but it was worth it.
