Default Need Help with Egale Eyes CCFL projector headlights!!!!

I recently got into an accident with my front end,.Brought it to the body shop to get it repaired & instead of oem lights, I purchased Egale Eyes Projector CCFL headlights. They just are lining right with the fender line. On top of that the headlights get better. When my low beam is on the high beam is on & when i turn on the high beams thats when the low beam projector goes on. Can anyone help me & let me know if they ever had this problem before.

you plugged the high beams into the low beams, and the low beams into the high beams genius. switch them back, problem solved.

and this is not newsworthy.

yeah, but how hard would it be to figure this out? flip on the low beams, the high beams come on, flip on the high beams, the low beams come on. what could the problem be?? hmmm...hmmm...could i have mixed up the plugs? perhaps.

also, this is not a newsworthy post.

first off im not an idiot ive been working at dealerships for the longest. it doesnt take a rocket scientist to switch the connectors to see if thats the problem. i tried that already. read it carefully. when i flip the low beams on the high beams go on. then when i turn the high beams on the low beam area where the projector i lights up along with the high beam still on. ive been in the car scene for a minute but never changed the headlights to aftermarket ones. so lets confirm a couple of things; im not an idiot, i already tried switching the connectors, oh didnt mean to put it in breakin news. damn mouse goes crazy sometimes.

now, to the OP, if the high beams are coming on when the low beams are suposed to be on, and then the low beams only come on when the high beams are switched on, it sounds like you stuck the wrong harness to the wrong bulb. and it sounds like if you switch them they will work like they normal right?

or maybe these aftermarket headlights switch the placement of the high and low beams, that could be it.

but swaping the plugs sounds right because it isn't like you changed the relays to change which lights come on when the switch is toggled.
