Hi.
I'm new to the forum.

I can answer both these questions for you.

1) I have the same headlights ( i believe one of the first sets as i got them just after inters last year) in black. Mine have done the same thing as yours and i feel for you cause i always put mine on main beam on cause otherwise everyone keeps telling me my bulbs gone!
I think some of mine have actually blown but saj is right they can fall out of the holders as they aren't very good and this gives a dim effect to them.

2) I have however found that the bulb type is a 286 bulb and you can buy some LED replacements (they are filament bulbs as stock) from www.ultraleds.co.uk

Hope this helps and hi to everyone as this is my second post!

if u havent fiddled with the bulbs before, then FK SUPPLY those 5w filament bulbs... which maye have blown or popped out of holder...u dont need to send it back... just remove the unit and have a look... ive spent more time inside an FK angel eye unit 2 last me a lifetime... i fiddle around with mine as i put my own LEDs in sometimes they move.. its just a bulb mate...
