    With that said, I ran these for two months and was unhappy with the output so I went back to stock.

    It baffles me how people spend money to downgrade in performance.
    Some don’t care, some don’t know. I’m just here to tell my experience.

    MESO knows. I remember these failing a lot and letting water inside as well. Might be fixed by now but just a heads up.

    You couldn’t replace the led bulb in there with something brighter?

    They use an H7 bulb which has a different “plug in” than oem. That plus they have dust caps on them mean you have to get a little creative and use a specific led bulb. Using an led also technically voids the warranty of these headlamps. Not to mention that using an led bulb in these (or oem housing) isn’t really a good fix. Brighter isn’t necessarily better.

    But these aren’t terrible, for the average joe they’re definitely good enough
