The reviews say that they are bright. I've seen several sets of the Jeep replacement LED assemblies and they are bright and have hi/lo beams and are actually DOTD approved for on road use. They did that as a complete lighting system with the housings. I've done a little looking on the web. Oracle makes led halo headlight assemblies, but they use halogen bulbs with led accents and run $680 a pair. I can't find an LED aftermarket assembly even for the new f150's. Like redknight1 said, it took audi years and millions of dollars to design their headlights around an LED Platform. Jeep was easy having stuck by the original headlight.

The fact that the installer admits that the bulbs won't exactly attach to the headlight with the leds positioned correctly speaks volumes for their useage. Let the video speak for the product. The installer said "Do the best you can". That means, "Don't buy these bulbs".

Yeah. Need something like these. The new fire truck was ordered with these headlights. Also ordered a pair for the rescue truck. Very bright and separate high/low units.
