So I bought a few H1 5000k bulbs off eBay, I tried putting them in but they seem to be very loose compared to my OEM bulbs.

No lights either when car is started :S

Specific H1 bulbs I have to look for?

Thanks

 

Check your fuses and make sure the bulbs are not blown and plugged in correctly.

 

I just tried my friend's bulbs and they work fine.

But these aftermarket ones literally fall out of the socket.

 

pics would help ur cause

 

Here is a pic of the aftermarket H1 bulb:

If i remember correctly, the OEM h1 bulb has a little slot at the bottom which I guess gives it a tighter fit.

 

usually theres a dimple u gotta match up to the slots on the housing. does it not have the dimples?

like this

 

Hmm, can you circle the "dimple"?

The one in front of me looks pretty much identical to the one you have linked.

 

maybe i met nipple but the raised round part u see in the pic

 

Oh yes, it does have a "nipple" xD

 

usually that nipple plus the metal prongs in the back of the head light should lock it in place nice and tight if it doesnt maybe u bent the prongs while removing and u gotta bend it back to spec

 

thanks for your help, I will give it a try right now

 

So it worked, haha.

Ended up being the prongs not being able to completely lock the h1 bulb in because the h1 bulb kept slipping out by a little. So I used tape around it, doing this only to pass my vehicle inspection.
