Ive fitted HIDs into angel eyes quite a few times now.

Each time, the bulb (the glass part) has not fitted into the light unit, so i use a small file and carefully file away the hole so the bulb fits in.

Then its just been a case of making sure its fully in, then pushing the clip down firmly so it clips down. Maybe use a flat head screwdriver to push it down as it hurts your finger sometimes :lol:

Also, remember that the bulb will only go in one way round. Ensure the flat edge of the bulb lines up with the notch on the holder. Just try the bulb both ways if you dont know what i mean.

oh and for the love of god hold the light unit as if your shinning the lights into the sky or else the little bits you file go into the light.
