    Any special ballast or harness required? I like the intensity of these.

    Thanks, but can't see it on my smartphone. :(

    Can you post a simple weblink? :)

    Edit: NVM, I was able to get to it by manually searching using the item number.

    Even copying and pasting a simple weblink now gets automatically converted into the annoying widget that we can't see on our smartphones. It didn't used to be that way. Annoying, I know.

    Today, I greased up the brake pads so they don't clatter and I glued the parts of the rh mirror back on until the replacement shows up.

    It was busy weekend, but here is the result.

    Jk, but took my Prius for a trip to Temecula, and ran across this . How cool is that, huh?

    These are Cree LEDs, so they're typically 5w each, and there's 2 per light. So only 10w each light. Description says they're 20w, so they must be talking about both sides total.

    They claim they're 2x brighter than H11 bulbs at 1900 lumens, but H11 bulbs are about 1350 lumens, so kind of shaky math being used. :(

    It's good to see that a small cooling fan is mounted on the base of each bulb because heat is bad for these SMD LEDs. 30k hour service life is pretty optimistic considering the application, and the warm environment in the engine compartment.

    Please review your impressions Dawit after driving around with these for a while. :)

    I have been driving with these for about a week now. They produce a much brighter light than the HIDs I had. So far haven't had any problems.
