Not sure how else to put it. The headlights on my '14 Grand Cherokee Limited suck. It's got the optional HID headlights. They used to be fine, not the best, but certainly decent-ish. A few years ago the driver's side headlight bulb burned out. Had my mechanic replace it. He put in the same kind of bulb that came out. It worked, but there's no center beam. It just glows mostly. Fast forward to earlier this year the passenger bulb burns out. I buy 2 on Amazon, linked below, and install one. Same kind that came out on the passenger side as well. Now it too sucks. The bulbs are firmly in their spot and the holder that holds the bulb in is twisted and locked into place. I took it out and back in several times. Flipping on the high beams I can see it flip over, but they're basically useless. Also, the auto-leveling does work. When I brake and the nose comes down, I can see them go up. They look aimed properly to me, just without any oomph.
The pics below are deceiving. They're not nearly that bright, my phone can see better than me Pic of one installed is what is in there now. Also, the LED rings around the edge aren't burned out, the camera just can't see them.
Any ideas?
