    Not sure if Opt7 is saying that my brights turn on when my fogs turn on, but that is not the case. Is this only if you have LEDs in the high beams? Because I'm not having any issues with my stock high beams turning on unintentionally.
    These are still good after a few days haha. I rock the fogs a lot and still haven't been flashed by oncoming drivers. If people are skeptical about the cheaper fogs not being bright enough, maybe these are the way to go.

    i wonder if you also had the led highs it would interfere, if you were bored one day you could always put the fogs into the highs, and see what happens ;)

    edit: shit nvm the highs are h9 i think

    I am running Opt 7 in both my 2004 Harley Davidson and my 2001 Tacoma. Great lights that are much brighter than stock! Only problem with Tacoma is high beam indicator doesn't light and I'm too lazy to add a resistor to fix it.

    Gonna buy a set for low beams in 2016 once I stop spending money on other stuff.

    I had a set in the fog lights, the output was not bad at all. I upgraded, so have these I could sell. I'll go $30 shipped. Original packaging, used for a couple hours.

    Mine just came in and it took me about 10 minutes to install them, super easy and they fit very well. My fogs are the opt7 cree led's (not as bright as these). Ill take night pictures later on and I will post. :thumbsup:

    So you're telling me the H11 bulb fits both the headlights and the fogs? Thought fogs for H16?

    And do you guys have noticed blinding of other drivers via their left side mirror that are stopped in front of you at a light or stop sign? Like sedans (accord, civic, camry).

    It's not so bad. I got a bit worried about blinding people but I still have yet to be flashed. I do shut my heads off when sitting in the drive through for my morning coffee just out of courtesy to people's eyes in the morning.
    Other than that, I think I'm done thinking they're too bright. Wooh! Get some more pics/opinions up people!
