Very nice mate better than messing around with HID and ballasts. If those headlamps had projector lenses these would be even better light output as they would be concentrated like with xenons. I also carry normal halogens just in case one of my HID bulbs blow as they are cheap. They benn solid for 4 years though!

I'm glad you did this video I was going to give up on fitting mine with how big they are. Also the ideots put plastic and rubber around the connection stopping it from working.

I took the air inlet hose off too, gives much more space. The gromet slides from the bracket and just pull and wigle it off. At 3:27 at the bottom of the screen. I tried similar Led H4 on my T30 X-trail and I could not stand the blueish glare from the threes/leaves. It made my eyes hurt. Plus they there brighter, but the output power/beam reach did not match my Ring 120% xenon max Ultimas.

Ahto Andron yeah it’s way easier removing the air inlet hose. Gives you all the room you need. I fitted LEDs recently (not this brand) but that was a great tip bud. Helped me out a lot. (Had to struggle with normal bulbs on that side before lol) And thanks to CJR ELECTRICAL for the upload. Not enough Honda UK cars when searching how to vids.

I bought Bosch Gigabulb H7's for my Gen 8, and sorry, but they are far better than those LED's. Ok they are still Halogen, and yes slightly yellower, but the light output, flood, and beam length is far far better than these LED's you've fitted.

In terms or percentage how much brighter is the view compared to standard? Need to sort the headlights on the jeep which are shocking but if you found the beam spread high I think I'll have issues with how high they are on the jeep

@johndavies46445 жыл бұрын
No there not because the way the light is emitted. The beam cut off will be all over place and fail an mot. However most testers pass them anyway!
@loc47254 жыл бұрын
They work and provided the MoT tester doesn't realise they're there (they usually either don't or couldn't care less) then you'll get a pass. The 'problem' is no LED main or dipped light is 'E' mark approvable. This is an EU thing as their regs' don't let you fit a bulb which draws less than 15 watts (LED's are usually less than 10W) *unless* part of a complete headlight unit. The idea appears to be that if one LED goes the manufacturer gets to sell you not a bulb but a complete headlight assembly. Nice eh?
@magoomagoon6 жыл бұрын
Do the headlight dustcaps still fit or do you have to remove or modify them in order to fit the bulbs and caps? I'm pretty interested in giving these a try, I've added hid projectors to headlight assemblies before but it really is a hassle having to mod the projectors and shrouds. Would much prefer a plug n play option like this. Also how is the light scatter compared to stock bulbs? Just wondering how they'd hold up come MOT time. Any info appreciated!
