    From what I have read, it doesn't sound like Led headlights work to well in a halogen housing. Every picture I've found shows very scattered light patterns.

    Thanks Sean, do you know what bulbs those are? Also any idea if there's a replacement bulb for Amber lights?

    From the owner:
    "Yep, they are not cheap but they work great and they are white in the DRL mode too."

    Sean, can you get a picture of the bright lights on the wall? I haven't decided what I'm going to do with the brights. I almost ordered a set of led, but of course searching the internet for info can really wreck your plans sometimes.

    Hate to leave them halogen when all the other lights will be changed.

    It depends on which ones you get. For the switch/back led's they are awesome. I have used Stark led's for headlights for some time. They are a 3 sided cob led. Haven't had anyone complain yet

    Hey sstoddard, did you install the led headlights in the spyder headlamps? I'm am trying to figure out how to install the led in the aftermarket headlamps. I know I have read that someone has done it but I can't find the post.

    I installed mine in the oem headlights. They should install the same in your aftermarket headlights as long as the bulb is the same.
