i have a pair of nokya arctic white stage 1s
i installed them on my car yesterday morning since it was so sunny, im sure they lit up when I first put them in. However, when I got to work they didint turn on anymore. Neither in DRL mode or high beam mode
i tried installing one stock, one nokya - neither lit up
but i put both stock back on and its fine again

anyone know whats wrong? i looked at the bulb and it looks ok (can't see much through the blue, but even if my bulb blew wouldn't my stock bulb work when i had 1 nokya, 1 stock installed?

did you make sure you have the bulb fully into the holder, mine did the same thing when i replaced mine, neither would work when the driver side one wasnt engaged fully. Was a b!itch to get in, seemed really tight for some reason. However i took um out basically right away, terrible output compared to the stock 4600's.

maybe not....i'll try again i guess
yeah the output as drls is lower but i actually may not mind...silver looks bad with the stock amber anyways so if its dim you wont really see it, dont know if the cops will hassle you though haha
