Ok, so when I got home I was messing with my low beam and high beam lights. I heard like a loud clicking noise, kind of like the lights are getting stuck. I don't think this is right. Does anyone have the same problem? What could it be, please help..............

It is for a 2SS/RS

Please eleborate further. There is no moving parts. I can't imagine what got get stuck...

Are you positive no moving parts? I believe that there is an "iris" that opens/closes for low to high on the halo lights. The noise is the lights opening/closing. HID are not usually good for high beams because of their longer turn on time than incandescent lights. The workaround is that the Camaro lights have a mechanical low/high mechanism.

You are correct ........... the HID irus physically points down for low and points higher for high beam..........
