    I doubt the problem would be with the light, I've bought heaps from China without any problems

    its a very simple install- the led light blew two fuse's, perhaps some kind of ground problem, I gave up- I put old light back on-it had a bad connection that can't be fixed.

    Ya, that's why I have two blown fuses, l know all it does is short out the fuse. I tried it both ways
    see pic with dead fuse's. also tried using a 12 v battery-nothing at all no lights.
