Question Eurolamp Housings?

i have heard good and bad things about these. what should i be worried about?
i just bought a pair last night. i will eventually get hid's but i dont feel like spending that much when i have new seats coming also. also i dont feel like making mounts for projectors so dont tell me not to put hid's in the eurolamps i have read up on that.

First thing I did to play it safe was to silicone around the back of the bulb receiver and the rear of the housing. After installing bulbs I also silicone around the edge of the bulb.

Silicone around the bulb edge is useless as long as the gasket on the front of the bulb base is intact. Just mount them and be happy as you can. the improvement will be visible but won't be impressive. I've almost got my HID finished, the Eurolight housings will go up for sale soon.

Glad you like the write up. I had no problems with my eurolight housings. Granted I put the HIDs in right away, but if your using them for regular lights right now, just put them in and they should be fine. You have to take the bracket off of your stock headlight and put it on the Eurolight one.
Lemme know if you need anything dude!

Also look for the word Top at the Top of the housing and place it in the Top position
