Troutman Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Mine arrived a few days ago and were installed after a bit of mucking about. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJ0xI8qdUEI There have been some cars where there isn't enough room to fit the bulb through the hole, but I had no such problems on my car. On the downside, the cost is heavy at $100 just for the bulbs, and the wiring is almost hair-thin and fragile. If using the 1156 adaptor, one pin would need to be ground as the cars use 1156a (offset pin). Performance is excellent as expected. I will seriously consider doing the front turn signals, though that will be more challenging as I'd need to remove the front bar to access it.

///BHRpowered Posted April 14, 2013 Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 Tried some in the bike. They work well, but I can't see them working 500% better then other LED's If a higher end 20 dollar LED goes bad its one thing, these had better last forever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troutman Posted April 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 I trust them in turn signals as they are less likely to overheat. Reversing lights should be OK. So far they appear good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
///BHRpowered Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 But they still don't really provide the same light output as halogens. For brake lights its more about the difference between high and low. For this I use them. In the Millenia I do indeed have LED reverse lights, but since it's not needed its just for show. Jeep on the other hand with no backup camera and usually being parked in the dark I have higher wattage reverse lights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troutman Posted April 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 I got 5 watt CREE bulbs for reversing lights. They perform well, but not exactly head and shoulders above stock. More about being consistent with the other mods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
