    Can anyone point me to previous threads that debates the pros/cons of HID versus LED headlamp bulbs?

    Did my research and found LED's were best for me. i believe HID's have a short lifespan. Something dumb like 200 hours. Not positive tho, mught be mixing them up. Heres a link to the bulbs i got, both h11 size but i have aftermarket headlights so you may have to look into that more
