      Hi. You need to add a resistor for each headlight, I only paid a £5 after complaining to the headlight bulb supplier about the warning light staying on

          Do you have any info about the resistor they supplied? Or did you send them the bulbs back?

            They were standard resistors or ballast as sometimes called. Where ever you buy them just tell them what you need them for
            there is no info on the ones I fitted

                Also, may I ask how you did the wiring? Maybe I screwed up?

                  Yes that looks like the resistor
                  you wire in the unit inline
                  Cut Each live wire going to each bulb and fit the unit inline with the 2 wires on the unit, so re joining the live wire end with unit in between
                  hope that makes sense

                    There is only 1 wire going into my factory headlight bulb. It is an H1 bulb. I emailed the company, waiting on a reply.

                      Yes just 1 wire to each bulb
                      join in the unit after cutting the wire
                      1 unit to each bulb
