    Replace them with the stock bulbs and see if there's still an issue. Can you link us to the lights you bought?

    It's common with LEDs, they still dim but it is much fast and not as apparent

    Whole bunch of shit! $$$
    I never could understand LED on the inside, .....at night, while driving , I would think it would blind the shit out of you and ruin your night vision for the road. To each their own I suppose.
