For those that want a less expensive and less complicated headlight upgrade (compared to HID), here's an option for you. These LEDs are a direct plug in. No ballast to deal with and no warm - up time. I tried them out, liked the instant on, but ultimately went back to HID for the brighter beam. But even though these aren't as bright as HIDs, they're a heck of a lot brighter than factory. And $17. Enjoy.

Yep, just make sure you get the positive and negative right :LMAO:

I haven't tried it, but you could probably install these from the inside without disassembling the headlight lens..... if you're small enough to crawl up under the front deck.

If you want to go the easy and inexpensive route, these will snap right in without having to mess with mounting a ballast. Not as bright as my HID's, but still a big improvement over stock and use less battery juice. Also, no warm up like HID so better for those that are flipping them on/ off more frequently.


Enjoy.
