The headlights work... It was the the JLR config that wasn't allowing them to function properly... cindyrovers

teddy, the bulbs have nothing to do with the topic. Aozoom are just ricer addons. What we’ve been talking about is going from 1. base headlights without angel eye drls, to premium LED lights with angel eye drls, then matrix leds which Simon of powerful uk tries to do and I believe is successful but it’s very hard.

1. You can find the matrix ballasts/headlights in eBay. Partecha out of the Czech Republic/Slovakia eBay you can find the headlights for less than 500 each, at least I found a set in 2022.

2. I upgraded from non drl base lights on a Trek to the premium leds. I used my Bosch tool but the gap iid tool will work too.

3. I don’t have the energy or time to work on the matrix programming or install the matrix ballasts but maybe over the holidays I’ll tackle it.

4. No I don’t have any programming recommendations except talk to others who offer it or are willing to do it.

5. Going new will cost you tons of money, thousands on a gimmick that doesn’t really do much . I like the angel eyes so I’m happy.

6. I still have the matrix ballasts sitting in my garage. There are specific part numbers.

sorry I don’t have time to answer any questions. Feel free to experiment and find success or failure like most of us who aren’t afraid to test out new things on our truck.

if you have questions Sarai, Hunters, Prestige, Garrett may answer them. I’m too busy to get on here much. Cheers, Mark
