from what i have seen on these, it seems they mean your hid bulb may be longer than what can fit in this housing so you may have to shim it. i do not think that you will have an issue. the only thing i heard that happens with these is they leak bad. when you get them put a bead of silicone sealer around them for good measure. and i wonder why the high beams have the halo not the lows. personally thats weird but o well. next thing is look at the engrish on the ebay list. Made by OEM Approved Manufacturers With Quality Meet.well you cant go wrong with quality meet.

that same message came with my headlights and i didnt have a problem. only problem i had was with my fogs and that was because the o rings that came with the new bulbs were bigger than the stock ones so i just put the old o rings on the new bulbs lol. everything should fine tho. i found out that my projectors that are on the inside of the headlight so i've been blinding people with the high beams on the new lights lol. oh well hid kit should be here monday or tuesday. i dk why my projectors switched spots on the new ones compared to the old ones.
