    LED Lights

    Hi

    I finally fitted LED headlights and thought I would post the results.

    I didn't add it to the previous thread because it seems the technology has moved on, as it always does

    These are the ones I bought, I have added a pic as well for when the ebay link no longer works

    H4 LED Headlight Lamp 5600LM Cree COB Conversion KIT H4 High LOW 6000K Black | eBay

    The pics are one of the type of bulb installed, one of the light pattern with a halogen in the left and an LED in the right and finally one of the pattern with both LEDS

    Overall I find them perhaps a little brighter than the halogens and I hope they are a lot more rugged

    Steve

    I was considering a set of these, thanks for taking the plunge!

    Any dash error messages?

    Will watch for updates after a few drives.

    Cheers

    Thanks Steve.

    A suggestion if someone else does a conversion...

    Set the camera in a fixed position on the dash or, if you have a tripod, on the driver's seat.

    Don't use auto exposure- set the camera manually so the same settings are used for all pix.

    Take a reference pic before changing any globes.

    Hi Ron

    It was a quick and dirty exercise, the comparison one was all that was needed really.

    It would also help to park the car in the same spot at the same angle

    Regards
    Steve

    Would like a photo on a flat road showing the real pattern, not the wall projection which can be a bit misleading...

    No worries I can do that, these photos were more about the cutoff point of low beam, which seems to be fine when compared to the halogens. When I pull up behind smaller vehicles my lights are not shining through their back window

    Once it stops blowing a gale and pouring with rain i'll take a couple of pics and post them!

    Pretty poor excuse if you ask me!
