    Those headlights doesn't look like LEDs. Very nice. Post a video or pic how your visibility now. Very interested to see how much gain without changing those headlight housings.

    I too love LEDs use as much as possible to reduce current draw. I don't like high power halogens to get more light but use lot of current.

    You might want to check the cut off on your headlights. Drop-in LED bulbs can throw off your beam pattern. You might end up blinding oncoming traffic.

    Yeah thanks for the heads up Thatbassguy after the LEDs I did have to bring headlights down... the lift didn't help that out too.

    The premise is that your LED headlights have to be adjustable, which allowed you to orient the LED chips toward 3 and 9 o'clock direction when installing them, this will more or less reduce flashing to oncoming vehicles.
    Here's my cutoff line, I'm quite satisfied with it, my led headlight bulbs were bought from AUXITO.
