    I had them in my taco and loved them. All my bulbs inside and out were LED.

    I am. I got them from Jumpers LEDs. You need to modify them so that the glare cuts down but other than that, I love them.

    I never had to modify mine? What glare did you get from yours? @T4RH33L

    Yeah, I'll see if I can find the post. But, essentially you use a piece of 1/2" copper pipe on the end that covers half of the normal lights like a shield (which the bulbs actually have but don't go high enough.)

    I can attest to being on the receiving end, even in a lifted truck, it was fucking horrendous. Most LED headlights have the same issue wether the driver realizes it or not, the oncoming driver and the driver you are following damn sure realize it. They are MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH better after the mod.

    Test them out riding behind your wife in the Mazda... Well that might not be a good test either way to small.. Try her normal car. Then try again after the mod if needed.

    If you don't have a problem with oncoming cars flashing their hi-beams at you and the people in front of you giving you death stares or telling you "dude, your lights are super bright" you can just run them without the mod.
