    So I just took my V3 Triton LED's out of the box for install.

    Right away I knew this shit wasn't going to work with the provided screws. These bulbs use screws that you can place in various holes in the bulb to mimic the plastic tabs on the regular bulb plug. The tabs that hold the bulb in when you push and twist.

    Well these come with a 3mm screw for a smaller bulb type, and then an adapter ring with 4mm screws. Well the ring is to thick for the 4mm screws to get a bite on the threads, thus no worky worky.

    I'm pretty angry that at the price of these things that this is happening.

    Mine were the same way and VLEDS shipped me the correct size screws for free. Their "screw system" is my only complaint about the setup though.
