    Opt7s innstalled and there AWSOME. Now if they last a long time it will be money well spent. Install took 20 minutes tops.

    I got mine and installed in about 25-30min for both low beams and driving/fog lights. They are very different than the stock halogens and the difference is very clear when you use the high beams. The distribution of light is wider with these and I like that, definitely brighter, a little difficult to distinguish because the color of light is SO different. I am keeping mine. I will probably go back this weekend and place a little silicone grease in the connections that didn't have the silicone gaskets and rezip-tie the extra wire to prevent any strain on the connections and wiring.

    It both satisfies me, yet pisses me off at the same time that people are such crybabies.

    So I ordered these headlight/foglight replacements on Amazon yesterday, this morning I get an email saying they are back ordered for 2 weeks. I have 2 options. Wait the 2 weeks with a 15% discount, or cancel the order. What are your thoughts? Should I try the Morimoto route instead? I take this as a 'sign' to maybe look at all my options.

    I got the same email, but they ended up shipping the next day. Still received my 15% too. The LEDs are great and have a 2 year warranty. Oh an no bouncing around like the HIDs.

    Installed both fogs and low beams last night. They look awesome. I also installed a chrome colored lens to hide the orange turn signal lamp looks amazing. I'll take some day and night pictures shortly.

    No BRO-ness to speak of... Well, except Kbro2's
    Went with the OPT7 H11 LED headlights up top and then went with the OPT7 LED Fog DRL's below. Some pics taken during the install.

    Fogs are way too dim in my opinion. I will most likely return them and run the LED headlights below as well. Both stock bulbs were identical so i see no issue running the same LED in both places.
