Default Xenon Conversion Kit.....
I purchased a set of vision X 9006 xenon conversion kit for my 2002 corvette. And I had a problem with the lights not returning all the way down after switching the lights off. Had no problem coming up even after I returned them all the way down by hand. But they wouldn't go all the way down. Both stopped at the exact same point. And idea's? I would hate to buy another set that doesn't work.........thanx

It has to do with the amount of load on the system w/ the ballasts vs. stock.. NOT-MEE's setup (forum vendor selling HID kits) have a built-in work-around for this. http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show...hlight=NOT-MEE

Is there a kit that doesn't replace the headlights?

Send a PM to Not-Mee with details of your problem and give him your phone number.

He will know of some kind of fix for your problem.

i believe a temporary fix is to flash your high beams to make them close properly.
