I liked them so much in the Vette that I ordered a pair in black for the Dodge. Cannot say enough about the quality of the light or how great the customer support department is.
Regardless of which vehicle I take to car show / cruises I get as many comments about the projector lights as I do the cars.
FYI -- On both the 80 & 85 I had to do the "circuit doctor fix." The resistors did not work on these vehicles.

OK. Finally got all the pieces. I got the Genssi lights as recommended. Also, instead of the Circuit doctor mod, I went with the resistors. Lets see how it all installs when I got the time.
can you add drl to high beam???? love these lights don't no how much trouble they re gonna get me into....nice beam ...I can see....only 1 other driver didn't like them ....Hater!

Why bother to add? Just turn it on high all day long for high beam DRL. Just don't be surprised if Johnny Law also is a hater. Unlike the other hater who probably got pissed at you blinding him, JL isn't a civilian so he/she can and probably will turn his own bright lights on you. Don't really care for JL and his/her disco lights. Your call.
Any advantages disadvantages on these vs GE nighthawk?
Has any better options come available since these came out?
How is the low beam? Does it have a cut out (like e specs) to avoid blinding other drivers?
Also can the lights be adjusted so both low and high properly illuminate the road? (Ie. Not that low beam adj to light road and hi lights up tree branches, or low beam is into the ground and high lights roads) -thats a problem with headlights on our low ride height cars
I bought a pair of led lights for my 84. Unfortunately they were quite a bit heavier than my Hella H4s. Not good on the front of a racecar. Had to return them. Every pound counts.

I tried to drive against my parked car. It seems OK but the C4 is low so not sure. Even at stop lights, trucks behind me also dumped enough lights to bother me in the center rear view mirror. Got fed up with it and put the mirror where it belongs. The trash can. Replace it with the self dimming one and it was better.

That's on my to do list. Have a mirror waiting to go in (with home link too!). Just gotta get around to it and figuring out how to mount it, since my 92 has a screw mounted mirror.
subbing for future updates. i really need to do this. night driving is dangerous even after adjusting the stock headlight positions
I too have the "Larsen" version of the Cree XM-L2 LED sealed beam lights. Can't say enough good about them, actually.
Yes, they do have a sharp cut-off on LO beam, which can be adjusted to keep the light out of leading or on-coming traffic. And, with the HI beams on, the road surface AND road signs are brightly illuminated like you never saw with the incandescent (OE) sealed beams: have to see them to believe how much better you can see!
FOG LIGHT OPTIONS when installing LED headlights:
Long story short:
For 100% stock functionality, you need to install a LOAD RESISTOR in conjunction with the LED sealed beam light. Or, -
you can make the FOG light operation independent of the headlight HI/LO operation by grounding the FOG light relay (after first disconnecting (cutting) the relay connection to the headlight circuit) (This latter option will also reduce the current load on the charging system significantly.)
