just installed it 2 days ago. Adjusting the projector beam was kinda annoying though. Install was easy as hell though and brightness isn't too bad. I think they're just slightly less bright than stock but not too much where you'd complain about it.






No connector problems, people have problems fitting the turn signal. Mine fit in fine... used the stock bulb and plug. Sorry if I'm thread jacking lol.

Looks great on black, kuyachris84. Good that it worked out well and didn't have problems. I should be getting mine next week sometime, as its still somewhere on the courier. Hopefully i don't run into any issues then.

How bright are the the LEDs? I prob won't connect those as it might attract the cops. lol.

Do you have a close up photo of how big your turn signal bulb is? like shape wise? Thanks

I'll take a close up pic tomorrow... i just used the stock turn signal bulbs but they're the same shape and size of what you get with the head lights. I was thinking of putting the 1157 clear bulb but already have clear turn signals in the back... more clear turn signals and i'm guaranteed to be pulled over lol.

The LED's are white and are facing to the fount of the car so are perfectly legal in all stats. only if u changes there color to anything other then white or yellow they become illegal
