Review on HIKARI Acme X Brightness Driving Vision Motorcycle & Powersports : Parts by Bret Wong

Revainrating 2 out of 5

It will let you down

The socket ring was not attached to the bulb with the Allen screw. So now the ring is in the headlight housing and the bulb is forcefully inserted. This means I have to disassemble the headlight housing to get the ring out. I install them on a Chrysler 200 and have been installing conversation kits for years. This isn't my first rodeo. I bought decoders because I knew Chrysler would flicker without them. When everything was installed, it periodically went out, then one headlight came on, then another. It's not safe. I removed the decoders and the flickering has stopped, but the typical flickering is present and doesn't go away even at higher engine speeds (sometimes higher rpms add a bit of driving stress). I wrote to Hikari and they offered no help other than getting her back. I don't have time to leave my car without headlights. This is the third set of Hikari kits that I have used in the last few years and I am convinced that they are uninterested in making a quality product.

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Good overall but...
