YB LS LED Headlight replacement - shutter issue

Hi, I have a YB LS and thought I'd give the existing HIR2 halogens a replace with LED equivalent for a bit brighter light especially when driving country at night.

I purchased these (Amazon LED) which fit fine and light up but it appears that the high beam shutter does not operate therefore the light output doesn't change. I have tried with just 1 LED in and the shutter operates on the halogen but the LED side remains the same.

Does anyone have any idea or is it not worth the hassle and I should just get a lightbar instead?

Thanks

hey flash.
Did u manage to sort this as I’m having the same issue when trying to install led bulbs. Can fire them up on low but the shutter does not switch to high beam.

many thanks
