Headlights OEM Subaru or HELIX

buy the helix oem-ish lights from ecs. i got them and put a hid kit in them and they work great. they look oem but without the orange marker lights on the sides. your gonna get a bulb out warning no matter what you choose but from what i have read and heard the helix projector led housings work and look a lot nicer than the winpower ones. i havent seen them in person, but ive heard the winpower ones led's are kinda dim. the helix ones are just as bright as oem. ive put them side by side with a friends gli with oem bixenons and they pretty much match besides the marker lights. i couldnt be happier with them. install is easy too.

The LED's turn off on the side when a blinker turns on (Not in video) but you can disable this in vagcom. (I like the LED's off during blinker, looks more OEM) THen Parking lights or running lights whatever you want to call them. LED's stay ON with blinker. Then Low Beam (This has the Pre-installed HID kit with 5000k bulbs. Wish they would offer 4500 as the 5000k is a whiteish blue, i like OEM 4300 or 4500 where its true white white, with a tad of yellow) The cutoff line is deep blue for some reason when i am driving around. Then High beams. I also have Lamin-x on the headlights, put that on before installing the headlights. Oh and NO the LED's dont blink in real life, just on camera. But this gives a good look at what they look like during daytime (post rain)

I have helix headlights with drop in HID,s. I have had them for little over 2 years now and I really like them. Like Dion said though you need to be careful in adjusting them as the plastic inner piece will break, mine did so I took it apart and fixed it. I have adjusted them a few times since then with no problems, I was just more careful. The beam out put is very nice. Once I got them aimed correctly I never get flashed by on coming cars and I see the whole road a lot better.

I've got the Helix OEM reps on my car. My only gripe with them is that I maxed out the driver side height adjustment and once it stopped moving I didn't try to adjust it more...that's how the adjusters break. Light output is better them OEM...I find any ecode pattern is better then the DOT blob.

Taking the challenge, I bought the headlights to give them a whirl. The housings fit great in the front clip assembly. Body lines and overall fit + finish is spectacular for aftermarket lights. And the price is reasonable compared to hard to find and overly expensive OEM HIDs.

I just got burned on the terrible quality of Helix halogen projector headlights, and put the stock reflector headlights back on. Yes, the Helix projector lights were that bad.

I'm having the same exact same issue. Got mine thursday install Friday and they work fine with no errors. Now Sunday DRLs flicker on startup and only now work when the headlights are turned on. And also... condensation. It's not your install it is the cheap Chinese lights not working correctly.
