    new LED Headlight bulb conversions (not HID)

    (sort of saw this coming, the new Audis just started with an actual
    LED bulb in one of their new models.. and Ive been selling some
    off-road light bars now for about a yr) ..BUT

    Ive had HIDs like most of us in my car now for about 10 yrs
    Recently while at SEMA I came across a company who is making
    LED replacement bulbs.
    I was a bit skeptical as always, so I bought a set for my
    Isuzu Vehicross (H4 non projector headlight) and a set of
    9006 for my SVX in 5k kelvin rating.

    I installed 1 on the right side of my svx and compared it to
    the 6K HID that was in the left side of my SVX..
    I have to admit, think Im leaving them in !!!
    The light output whiter (due to the 5k compared to 6k of course)
    but the pattern lites up much better in the first 20 30 ft in front of
    the car.
    For long distance, I still have 5k HIDs for waaayyyy down the road stuff
    but think Im going to stick with the LEDs in my lows for now.

    I havent put the H4 set in my Vehicross yet to see how they react
    to non projector headlights, but thats next.
    These dont use ballast of either and are not as easily breakable like std
    halogen or HID bulbs, kind of a plus.

    We are going to sell these kits prob for about $150 set.
    Ill post some pics.

    I'm tempted to get a set myself. It looks like it has a decent heat sink and has a cooling fan, so the heat shouldn't be too big of a deal.

    I saw they already have these kits on Ebay for $140 shipped.

    Very cool, I was wondering when LEDs headlight bulbs would make it to aftermarket mods.

    Impressive light output for no ballasts. I bet the glare is petty bad coming off the reflectors but no worse than an HID conversion.

    Ballast in HID kits are only used to convert and regulate the flow of current from 55w down to 35w (normal HID kit wattage). These kits come with their own control module which does the same thing, just down to 15w.

    I would be interested in trying one of these kits too. I was wondering when LED headlights would hit the market.
