D1S bulbs are expensive. You can find some on eBay for a cheap price, but I'd look at getting MTEC bulbs or Philips

have you tried plugging it and seeing if all the lights work? because one of my xenons would randomly shut off. crossing my fingers that new bulbs would fix this.

let me know if you get yours up and running! did you do anything different other than tapping the new ground and bixenon shutter?

I should have mine done this weekend. I am coding the car as well. I tapped the grounds together and the bixenon as well. I tested it and it works so far, so I'll do the rest of the install and coding this weekend.

I'm not sure bulbs are your issue if they work for a while and then shut off. Could be something else.

You code in the xenon and adaptive modules using NCS. What it does is add the xenon headlights to your car so your car's computer thinks you had xenons installed from the factory. Head over to the coding section of this forum. Tons of info there.
