    Selling my 6 month old LED headlights i purchased through TW/CSJumper. They work perfect, nothing wrong. My problem was here in Texas, to renew my inspection, it would not pass. Per my inspection place, even though they are DOT legal, since it did not come on the truck from the factory they could not pass my inspection so i put a set of Silverstars. Here is your chance to save some good $$$. Selling for $SOLD shipped Continental US only please. First PM is first buyer. If you're in the Dallas Area and have a trade, i'm looking for a bullbar next. Willing to trade plus some cash on my part if in good shape.

    Sold to Rusty Blue. Thanks !

    First, he noticed how white they are. His buddy said, they're probably Silverstars. Then they popped the hood and saw the LED Drivers and heat sink, and it was all over. Luckily they were cool and didn't charge me for the fail. They just said to replace them and come back for the inspection which i did.

    Jumper doesn't post his headlight prices (or I didn't read deep enough into post). Is $80 shipped a decent resale price?

    Also... why didn't you put in oem lights during inspection, then put your leds in when you got home. Gotta do weekly inspections or something?

    I paid over $100 plus shipping for them new back then. And i did put replacements in for the 2nd inspection, just don't want to go through the hassle every year.

    Annual safety inspection require by state law. Checks lights, horn, wipers etc. Some counties also require emissions testing. Luckily mine doesn't.

    I grew up in Texas, and every car needs an inspection sticker. Most States require some sort of inspection for safety and emissions testing.

    I used to weld in cut outs once a year on my '59 Chevy. Hastle? Maybe but worth it. I'd change out a set of lights once a year. But that's me.

    Is there a lot of wiring to be replaced/cut/spliced?

    some of this, a little of that

    They should be plug and play, no splicing, or wiring needed. If they are like the other ones they should be 35W also.
