LED Headlights

Alright everybody, I have looked for LED headlight 'bulbs' for my 06', but there are too many choices out there and I don't want to get screwed over by purchasing a crap set.

Has/is anyone using using/used a reputable set of LED lights? And, if so are/have you had any electrical issues?

yes i have lifetime leds installed as do all my friends with LEDs. mine are great, although i have gone through 2 sets in over a year (one only lasted 2 weeks) but the warranty is no questions asked and always get a new set out pretty quick. i love the headlights, just instant on...no warmup or anything like HIDs. theyre crazy bright

Awesome brother thank you for that information. Couple of last questions if you don't mind:

1. Did you have to specify your year, model, and make? I'm not seeing where on the website that you specify your vehicle type.

2. Did you have to purchase the adapter ring and/or anti flicker harness.

Thanks again for your help man!!!

Do you have fogs + driving lights? I have had issues with my HID's over the years. Thx

I did not specify anything...i just knew it was the 9007 (i think) style bulb for my 2003.

I did not purchase any adapters or anything

I only have their headlights, i have aftermarket 2x2" LED cube lights for fogs. My friend has their fog light bulbs and he loves them

I have the lower wattage ones but i have 2 friends with the higher wattage and as far as i know, the warranty is the same...ill look

The website says full lifetime no questions asked warranty on all their headlamps on the front page.

Going on my Christmas list. Great find. Super bright H13, and H10s for the fogs. I do have DRLs activated, and they say don't use them for that. So, I wold either run headlights all the time or disconnect DRLs. I pretty much run headlights always anyway.

$250 for extra bright h13s seems spendy.

70 watts per light too, 10 watts more than incandescent high beams. I don't know if the harness will handle this well. But I would really like the light output. I also have bright box which powers from each battery, separately, allows driving lights to be on on high beam and burns both filaments on high beam. idk! Maybe better the standard H13 and H10s for the driving lights.

it's a lot to pay for a small gain - how often do you find you're over-running your main beams?
