So I picked up some plug and play LED's that were recommended by a friend and so far they're awesome. I had to install inline resistors behind the LED's because of the light flickering on and off. I found out it was because they draw so little power the computer thinks the lights aren't on. Since I installed the resistors they're working great.. Going to try these out for a bit and then consider doing the fogs and tail lights also... Here are some pics

Were they just leds bulbs or are they a kit?

It was a plug and play kit. I did have to install resistors though

I don't think they need projectors. I mean I am sure it wouldn't hurt but the light path seems very direct and not scattered while driving

I'm still surprised LED's are doing just as good as HID's. They must have stepped their game up in the last 2 years since I've looked at bulbs.

The set of leds I bought for my Moms car was a mistake.. they were not as bright as stock non led/hid bulbs.. I think the are not meant to be used in projector headlights..

That's what I was thinking... All leds I saw a couple years ago were good for anything other than your main beams. i.e. backup lights, turn signals, brakes and interior lights

The color temperature is proably the issue, yellows travel a lot further than whites and blues.

That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

My 6k LED's are way cleaner and brighter than my neighbors 6k HID's ... He had a lot of scatter
