    It will lock by itself if you don't open or open and close your door within a few seconds. Any longer, and they'll remain unlocked.

    Did the H11 to H9 lowbeam bulb conversion. Followed the advice of the You Tubers.. Got a $36 dremel and it took about 10 min per bulb. Anyway it's almost dark and I have a 50 mile drive ahead of me. I'll post my results when I get home....

    Well the H9 bulbs give me a whiter light... A brighter light and more range in all directions. Def feels safer to not be out driving my stock headlights at 65 mph.
    Below is a before and after it doesn't really to justice to the increased range though. Top picture is the H9 bulbs. Yes I have a shadow arm on my right headlight reflector from not getting a bulb securely in the socket last month

    That shadow is weird, looks like a ground wire shadow from improper type of H11 HID bulbs. It would be interesting to see what's causing the shadow.

    The first time I changed my bulbs I drove home and noticed my right light was not very bright. When I got home the bulb was not secured in the socket and I smelled melting plastic. I have tried three different bulbs and the same shadow appears with each. I must have melted some plastic onto the reflector surface inside the headlight housing.

    Here's that pic of the weather stripping I used. You'll be able to make a nice circle around the 5 studs and the round hole for the rear brake light wire. Plus I duck tape up the holes were the 2 plastic clips use to snapped into.
