Okay. From what I seen, most of the newer LED bulbs allow you "clock" the bulbs so they sit just right so the body of the bulb is straight up and down (vertical) so the each side of LEDs is facing each side of the housing the same way.

Thanks, he's doing my window tint as we speak. When I pick it up this afternoon I'll talk with him about it.

Even when there is light out the headlights are still bright on the road. Can't remember if I have my fog lights on in this one or not.


3 year warranty for h13 / 9008 and 2 year for h10 /9005 .

Just fogs on And the only reason why it is splotchy is because it is having to protrude light through the lower part of my bumper which has expanded metal to protect.

Headlights and fogs on . You can definitely see a difference when the fog lights are on and driving as well as the lower part of my driveway

Headlights only

Because of the quality of light put out with this brand is why I went with the same brand for my new ones also Passenger side led Has not got off since last time.
