I bought a set of these, Just got them yesterday. How does the HID bulb fit into the H7 socket? The stock headlight bulb has the three tabs but the VVME bulb does not. Will it make sense when I install it?

It will only make "cents" to the outfit that sold it to you.... sorry about that.

Why does that cable say H1? It looks like you got the wrong bulbs.

Definetly the wrong bulbs. Mine had the 3 tabs and said H7 on that there tag. Hopefully they come through for you. Let us know either way as I am sure I am not the only one curious on their customer service.

Thanks. Well that explains why it does not look right! I just sent them an E-mail. It may be cheaper to put these on E-bay then to ship back to China! What uses an H1?

I just got off the phone with VVME, but I really could not understand the lady I was talking to because of her accent. I did understand the part about sending them an e mail, which I did
But I was thinking I would just order the H7 replacement bulbs, for what I'll have to pay in shipping both ways to return them and get the right set, it may be cheaper.
I think they should work with the rest of the kit.

The ballast work with almost all their bulbs, so yeah, buy replacement H7s and sell the others on that auction site.

I love mine, I see so far down the road I punk squirrels all the time now, as I am looking so far ahead now at night!!

Thats what I ended up doing. It's interesting the ballast says Hella on it.

I've not had good experience getting stuff from China, return shipping is outrageous. I got my HIDs from ebay- " Zgperformance" from So Cal, my 3rd set and they work great.

I got mine from Star Rotors and the install was easy as pie and you get 2 for about $100.00 best deal I found.
