EFX Angel Eyes

I know theres a few other threads on these angel eyes but question not directly addressed: I put these in last night and they look AWESOME at night BUT for some reason they look weak in daylight...hardly even discernable. When I stop behind a car and look at my 1ers reflection, it looks like they are pretty much off.... u all with the efx kit notice this or is it just me? btw..i screwed on the bulb unit just like the OEM unit was on.

Did you try rotating them 90 degrees. It sounds like they need to be positioned correctly to hit the ring of the angel eyes.

This is what they sent me EVEN though the ad said H8.

That is not even close. I have their phone number if you need to talk to them directly. Just PM me if you want it.

I know, right? Sucks, because as I removed the sotck bulbs, I broke one. Now I am left without any angel eyes, and am very upset. How hard is it to check the contents of the package before shipping?

I called them already, and left a message. What a PITA.
