My drl is half out, these aren't oem they're vland but only recently did I notice one was out. Any advice in a fix is welcome, still have oem headlights so I don't care if I have to pop them back in. Got them last year in September, had a 1 year warranty so that's out

Hate to say it but with that failure mode (seems like something internal and probably related to a failed diode or resistor) and the stated timeframe you’re probably SOL. You could try reaching out to the seller or manufacturer anyway, they may be helpful.

There are some retrofit companies that may be able to repair them, it will be fairly involved though and likely a bit spendy.

Nah, if I'm going that route I'd rather just retrofit myself with a kit, I'll probably just leave them, I upgraded mostly for the led housing and the lights are still brighter than oem so the original reason for purchase is still there, one day when headlights are cheaper I'll revisit buying another set

They aren't too expensive if you have know how to do it yourself:
