Default LED Lights

Just got these LED Headlights from www.Headlightrevolution.com
They are a great improvement over the stock ones. It's a kit that was really simple to put in. Here is the link to the kit: http://www.headlightrevolution.com/G..._p/7010269.htm

Can you be a little more specific about what you got from them to put in or replace your headlights?

Yeah so when someone puts a link in every single post, it tells me they are financially connected to the product. How much kickback are you getting for this spamfest?

I wasn't trying to sell the product! I was merely trying to explain to that person what I bought. Get off your high horse.

Looks like it's just a HID setup but using LED bulbs instead of your normal HID bulbs.
Do you have before and after pictures showing the light output ?

A picture looking forward from behind the lights (preferably at night) might be useful:
I don't give a squat what they look like from the front during the daytime.

Plug and play. Very simple install. It comes with double sided sticky pad to secure the small transformer.

I understand that. Still waiting to get it on the road again. Some snow still on the ground. I will try to get it out later this week though.

Having that license plate takes guts...unless you're " on the job" as well.

LOL, thanks. Actually the one time I was pulled over, the cop told me he liked the plates. He pulled me over for having the tint on my plate cover. No tickets, just a warning
