sounds like you probably put the wrong bulbs in.

It'll be the wiring looms supplied with the lights - loads of them have this problem.
Get Halfords to replace the wiring or if you want, you could ask for a refund, but seeing as you've only just chosen the lights you probably want to keep em
Luckily mine worked first time, every time although when I've been swapping them over, I've always kept the same looms.

Get a re-fund and put the standard lights on - they look nice

You're confusing Lexus lights with those gash 3d ones some people buy.
Lexus lights are only 50% barry. I am happy with 50%.

I sold the 3D lights for more than I bought them for, so everyones happy

the 3d ones look good, but only on certain colours, i have them and think they suit the car, they look good on blue and red cars all others i dont think they look as good and would b better off gettin tinted lights
