Explain? You mean the headlight cover still is amber on the right and left indicators? If so than you need to clear your headlights.. Its not a easy job and risky if it isnt sealed right...

two options:
1. stick tape or some kind of sticker over it, looks like this:

2. open ur headlights and take out the orange piece, looks like this:


the first one is easy to do, and no risk of leakage, but it doesnt look as good (it looks fine from a distance)...the second one is harder to do, risk of leaking, but looks better...and in my opinion well worth the work/risk

unplugged my hid plug when still raining... parked
in the sun and drove with highbeams on during the
day and it dried... i'm just too lazy to redo the lights.
