They did it for you? Or you did it yourself but just bought the parts from them? Nonetheless looks very good!

I can agree with that! That and painting my housing black but all in all it's pretty straight forward just time consuming

 

[johnnyboy83]

Yep , plus with all those diy on the forum. That was an easy job. Does your car come with daytime running light? Cause mine do. I had to pull the fuse for the drl out cause the drl module is duty cycle , it was making the bi-xenon selenoïd to go on and off . And I wanted to use the oem switch for the highbeam

Yea mine have DRL all civic have them. But I didn't have any issue with my DRL I have splitters not sure if you do but I haven't had one isse yet

 

[johnnyboy83]

Yep i do have splitter, and I could hear the module tryin' to flicker with the drl fuse in. Not a big issue here as I dont like much drl. I know they are a sefety feature but i dont want tu burn the bi-xenon selenoid . Send a email to trs and ask them about that issue. You cannot ear the module once the headlight has been sealed. But when I did the adjustement without the lense, i could ear it . Weird

Well I hardly ever use my highbeam anyway, so I figured if the bi-Xeon part stop working it wouldn't be a big deal. My 8thgen had Retros that weren't bi-Xeon so I was use to not have having that anyway long as my highbeam comes on I'm good... Lol

You won't affect the lifespan of the solenoid with it being activated with the DRLs.

If you have any further questions don't hesitate to contact me either on here or at TRS(support@theretrofitsource.com)
