I just replaced my 03 headlights with the 06, one question isn't the bottom light is the fog light? just like 03 lights? I turned all my lights on but both bottom lights won't come on. Is there something I need to do? By the way the headlights came with the orginal bulbs for 06. Thanks.

Did you check all the connections and make sure the h1 bulbs weren't damaged before installing?

one thing I notice when I was checking the bulbs. It's a small bulb just a little bit bigger than the side marker bulb. Is it suppose to be like that?

Declined the recall during my last service visit, went in again 2 days ago for my next one, figured declining it once was good enough. But they went ahead and did it without telling me, and now I have lost all my 3 sets of aftermarket bulbs and the clear bra. I am so pissed, but they have agreed to replace the bulbs and the clear bra at their cost

The dealers get re-embursed for the Clear Bra.. you have a clear bra when you come to us, we put on light that already have clear bra re-installed... go back to your dealer...

the headlights are no longer street legal... If you get a vehicle inspection, they could fine you...

MOST dealers do not align the headlights after they install the new ones... make sure they are re-aligned and you will be happy... if you have aftermarket bulbs, tell them you want your old bulbs back or installed into the new lights...

Alignment

First of all im new to this site so Hello. As for the recall it made no difference i could tell. Alignment is pretty easy and best way to do it is just to remove your inner fender wall. Its a few screws and some of those little pop out fasteners. you will have full access to the adjustments and the back of the light. you will probably need to remove the front tires as well. Once the fender well is removed you can put the tires back on with a few lugs in it and set the car down for adjustment. It will only take 20 mins or so for the whole job.

Cheers

can't tell the difference...I had my dealer raise the level of my headlights after install hahahaha....I felt that they pointed too downwards and I wasn't getting enough up ahead lighting.

Its nice to have a set of brand new headlamps though...but...not really worth your time.
