Anyway, back to the topic of this thread and the more recent developments with these lights....anybody else get their lights yet? Similar issues? Or did they fit perfect?? Keep the reviews coming... I can't wait to get mine and I'm keeping my fingers crossed on fitment...

I wonder if they changed the original (factory) connector and David had the suppliers look at a particular model year and didn't realize they may have changed the connector?

I think it would help if someone with a 2008 and someone else with a 2009 would attempt an install and let us know whether their connector is the same as mine or if it's different.

Anybody with a 2008? 2009?

The adapter is supposed to be the same as a H13 bulb base. Since 2007 to 2010 models all use H13 bulbs, why would the base change?

Looking forward to Northridge's fix. It would be nice to just plug these in without hacking them up.

Don't give up hope. I've seen instances where changes were made in the middle of model years. Until you actually pull your connectors apart, you don't know.

Just think, if they do not match/fit, you already have two solutions available to you.
I didn't have those choices - only one and I didn't like that solution so I create a different solution!

Bear with it - notice in the post after yours, David is going to fix it.
