Review on πŸ’‘ GenXenon D5S 35W LED 6000K 3000 Lumen White Headlight Bulbs - Error-Free Replacement, 2 Pack by Aaron Stewart

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Brighter than the stock HID, wish they had a 45w version and a better connector

I installed this to replace a 2020 Alfa Romeo Giulia D5S HID. or low lumen output, a product had excellent lumen output and beam pattern. It was a 45w bulb but what I didn't know was that after testing one side and making sure everything worked the second bulb didn't fit. I've tried swapping the left and right bulbs to see if that helps, but if that doesn't matter, one bulb fits on one side and the other doesn't fit at all. AMZN replaced it with a different kit, but the replacement didn't work for any of the bulbs. They would not replace it again and told me to get a refund for buying it back. Instead of trying individually I ordered 3 sets and surprisingly none of them fit. Out of 10 pears, only 1 and 9 do not fit or are inserted into the socket but do not turn into the lock. However, the connection doesn't appear to be stable/reliable as it doesn't click or lock when you insert a connector. Everything else is excellent. Installed both sides with no problems, the only thing I have now is that the 45w bulb is not as bright but still brighter than the standard bulb. I would give this top recommendation to anyone looking to upgrade their D5S lamp as it keeps the standard design yet is easy to install.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Concise instructions
