    Correct me if I’m wrong, but wouldn’t that make the led bar blink with the blinkers?

    Just don't use your blinkers if you don't like the look.

    I don't think so. Would be nice to see how the signals and led bars interact though.

    I have noticed that the bars take an extra second to light up when I turn them on. I wonder how that would work with them trying to blink, and so often.

    I wish there were some more pictures on here and info of how well they are holding up for the 05-11 style front end ones.

    Aside from the issue with the bulb heat scratching the plastic, would LED's maybe be better for the light, also overall how do you like them over stock?

    I really don’t know how that happened, because the other one is fine. I was just guessing with the heat and where those little cracks are located. I don’t think LEDs are good in these projectors. I like them way better than stock for light output, it’s not even close. And I have crappy bulbs in them now, should be better with better bulbs.

    None of the led bulbs anyone is posting are going to be better than halogen. The leds need to be cree or HIDs.

    While I agree I was more posting that a 9006 bulb won't even fit into a housing made for a H9 bulb.

    I ordered the PIAA bulbs. The eBay seller is also sending me a new set of the lights, so once all of this stuff comes I’ll post some more cut off shots with the new bulbs. I think I paid $67 for the bulbs so not cheap but not too bad assuming they last a while.

    Those PIAA bulbs look pretty legit. Can't wait to see the light output.

    They were honestly all I could find that seemed to be of quality. Choosing an H9 bulb for these seems odd, but I’ll make it work.
