I buy all of my LED's from this place

I bought LED DRL's from that guy. Nice product but too bad the light they put out sucked.

Here's a good comparisons. The stock halogens were way better for the DRL application.

Just so you know if you read his directions it says do not use in driving lighs.

Where's it say that?

 

[psyco66]

I will find it.

 

[Unit453]

It might now but it didnt when I bought them. I dont even see where it says that. I'm not worried. It was a huge waste of $35 bucks anyways.

Look down the page to Installation of LEDS:
It says

Never use leds in GM truck and SUV Daytime Running Lights (DRL's) postions. The other bulbs positions are fine, but not the DRL postion.


Hope this helps

Ha, I wonder why? I ran them for 2 years straight in my Avalanche and didn't have 1 problem.

Maybe for excessive heat or something.

 

[Mad Maxx]

Could be, if you are using his bulbs that he makes with the 1w LED on them. I had them in my Rear Fog light spot on my S60R, and they did get just hot enough you couldn't hold them for too long, just like a Halogen. But other than that, any other LED isn't gonna produce enough heat that you are going to have to worry about it.

Well, I have 2 sets from 2 different sellers I'd give you if you wanted. I ran both for all of 10 minutes before I yanked them out.
