LED Angel Eyes Problems

I just installed some new led angel eyes in my 135i and as soon as I turn them on my windows start going up and down by themselves. They just go up and down a crack, the same amount as when you open and close the doors. I also tried driving it down the road. As soon as I start out the door ajar warnings start alternating back and forth also. When I put the stock lights back in everything returns to normal. Anyone else ever have this happen? If so, how did you fix it. I really like the nice white lights compared to the crappy stock yellow ones. Are there any other alternatives?

They are 80w Cree LED Angel Eyes 6000K from extreme power house. Here's the link where I got them. http://www.x-ph.com/80w-cree-led-angel-eyes-6000k/
I liked the lights, just can't get them to work.

We have sold a lot of these lights and never had this problem before.
We did give the customer full refund and we are waiting for the lights back to see if they were defective. Will post updates soon.

Are the angel eyes on the same ECU as the doors?

Did anyone ever determine the root cause of this issue? I'm experiencing the same thing with some LED bulbs I purchased from eBay. The suplier is going to send me a new 'decoder' to test but I'd like to understand why this happens...

Lighting and windows are in the FRM module together. Doesn't really explain it going back when swapped though if it was a coding thing or bad ecu.

I experienced the same issue with Burger LED's. I finally went with the PIAA H8's and haven't had any issues since.
