Hi It's possible that you will have problems with the pop up system.
This because the high voltage trans have no low resistance in the in and the electronic of your car let open the lights also if the lights are off so you must put the high beams whenever you turn off your lights.
You can ask me if you'll have other problems and enjoy your HIDS
