    Mine is the 3rd gen so there are separate bulbs for low & high.

    What was your opinion on the fog lights? Brighter that stock and were they stable (no bouncing)?
    Any word from the 2nd gen tester?

    Toynado is correct, the 3rd gen have a separate bulb for low and high. I have someone testing a second gen which use a dual filament bulb.

    To answer another question, the low beam do reach out much further than 80 feet and still maintain great light. I have done these to a few guys truck at work and one night I purposely had my coworker follow behind me in his 2016 Tacoma (installed same low, high and fog lights) and the lights were not crazy in your face bright directly behind me. Now I haven't tested with a lower vehicle to see how they are but I could also take a picture with my truck behind in my lowered G37.

    My manufacturer does have H4 in stock that could ship right away. I had a few in my office last week but all have sold locally here. I will get the site updated with the H4 kits either tonight or tomorrow at the latest

    Stock is on the right, you be the judge.

    One thing that really impressed me was the peripheral lighting thrown by the fogs. Compare the two photos, one with just low and the other with the fogs. Look at how much more lit up the road and the hillside is to the left of the hood. image.jpg

    Hm. Seem to be getting good reviews and I like the pricing you're coming in at. I sure wish I could see them in person.

    So is that the equivalent to 9145?
    Also do you know if they make one that's the equivalent to a 9003/ H4 and is basically just plug it in and go? Would love to have something to replace the power robbing bulb on my dual sport that could even have more light output.

    My dual sport runs the 9003/H4 and I plan to run one of these LED headlights. I am currently the 2nd Gen tester, Just installed the headlights, about to go take night shot photos and type a quick review for you guys!

    Just another pic further away to show the cut off, that building is approximately 150 feet away. Hope this gives a better idea on the intensity of the light and cut off of the low beam LED Kit. I am going to try and find a better spot to take pics tomorrow night.

    9145 is the same as H10 yes. H4 is available (low/high bulb), just not up on my site yet.

    Can you let me know when it gets listed? Direct plug in or mods to wiring required?

    Direct plug and play, no modification to wiring at all. The only thing that you might have to do as cut/modify the dust cap on the back of the headlight to fit the fan on the back of the bulb. I will post up when the H4 bulb is on the website.

    That would be great thank you. My current bulb is a 55/60 watt piaa and at idle lighting dims. Would this bulb draw less amps so I have less draw on the system with as go as if not better light output. What's the lumens 3600 or 3800?

    Yes the pictures though very impressive don't fully do them justice. I see you're in So Cal so if you find yourself up north any time soon I'm 10 min from SFO.

    Yow. As much as I'd LOVE to visit up there (I'd say 49ers but that makes me cry right now) I don't see myself coming up soon. Thank you for the offer!

    Here are the pics from the viewpoint of a car in front of your truck. Mind you I have a Toyteclift Boss lift and 275's so my lights are a tad higher than a stock truck. I didn't adjust the angle after the lift & tires.

    Photos taken with just low beams since that's majority of our street driving.

    Here are sides and rear mirror views as it would be at a stop light or in traffic. It is bright in the side mirrors but not bad in the rear especially if you toggle it.

    image.jpg
    image.jpgimage.jpg image.jpg


    Here are same shots taken from about two car lengths back (looks closer in pic)

    Not as bright in the mirrors and again the rear could be toggled to kill the glare.
    image.jpg
    image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg

    My opinion is that yes they are bright but not obnoxious. No more so than I've seen come factory on other makes and models. Personally, if I can see better - the kid or deer darting into the road from the side or the ladder in the street that fell off someone's work truck - then I'll be "that guy" and make people toggle their rear mirror.

    I'm still in awe of the fogs peripheral light spread. Check out these two comparison photos. One with lows and one with addition of fogs.
