This seems too good to be true. If the seller had a higher rating I might consider it.

These are going to give you a weird light throw pattern, because they won't illuminate all of the reflector. I suspect there won't be room for the fans behind the bulb in the 914 popups.
If you want properly designed LED headlights that will fit our cars, you need to be looking at the JW Speaker (very expensive) or the TruckLite (reasonably expensive) lights. FWIW, Daniel Stern seems to like the JW Speaker units. If you just want better lights, you still want reflectors and optics that are properly matched to the light source. Try the Dapper Lighting bi-xenon setup, for one. There are probably others... |
