Default Angel eye headlamp malfunction

alright thank you again stlwagon and avery i finally got my angel eyes installed
ceppttt nowwww its not working right
my dad helped me with the whole electrical thing and everythings in place, cept the headlamps turn off after about 15-20 seconds on lowbeam.. the highbeams seem to stay on... any ideas on what that could be???

alsoooo, the rings arent as impressive as they look like some of the cars iv seen online that other ppl have.. its alot dimmer than other pictures iv seen of other stangs... what might be causing this problem??? i got em from California Mustang so a pretty well known place, buttt...

i asked for the angel eyes, and they brought a box out, opened em up and they wernt the ussual headlights you see online, they wer two halos side by side, i asked if they had the other ones and they did (the over and under rings with the strip of LED's on the side)..
however, my dad was with me and said he thought the side by side ones looked better, i agreed.. but now... i cant find the ones i bought annnnnnnnywhere online....... is this bad... lol
sooo kinda scared right now
need some answers guys
thanx

Well first off I don't know what to tell you about them turning off, maybe its the wiring crossing somewhere?!? As far as the halo ring goes, its just one small bulb that fits in there and sometimes they dont ship right and the bulb comes loose. Just push it back in till it clicks. The halo isn't that bright during the day since its only the light of one small bulb being reflected by a series of mirrors. They do make a small neon tubing that you could replace the bulb with if you were able to thread it thru there. I have the Halo's w/ the LED strip and I like them but I know the ones you are talking about and they are online somewhere I just can't remember where I saw them. I'll get back to you on that.

Well I replaced the bulb on the bottoms with Xenon H1's. They make it really white. The regular lights are about the same as OEM and the brights are way brighter. Plus I like running just the LED's in the daytime.

The LED's are not for driving at night, that is why it includes headlights. They are extremely bright, but not for driving at night. Do not use them to drive at night. Use the headlights.

The LED's I'm talking about is the 6 LED strip I have on both headlights, the vertical ones. The rings on the other hand are bright at night, but not in the daytime. I can deal with that tho.

Yea I know how you feel about not wanting to take off the bumper again. Hopefully you decide on something that you will be happy with.
