ok after installin my black lexus lights i purchases the twin fillement bulbs (even tho they should of been supplied) But.. when i put my side lights on one side is dimmer than the other, then once i press the brake light the other side is dimmer than the other one at first i thought the bulbs so i swapped them over and still the same side is slightly dimmer so its not the bulbs i then looked at the bulbs and thought they were slightly different so i went back and swapped them for two identicle bulbs but i still get the same problem... any advice?
