Hope the video works, promised pics but the video shows the true color and light amount better. Ive tried tons of LEDs but these are the only ones that dont trigger the warning and they also dont need resistors.
To answer some PM's:
..install was easy, LED cluster removes via one screw to gain access to the bulb socket
..the bulbs run cooler than stock
..bulb is same size as factory unit thus plugs right in
..they are brighter than stock bulbs

I have both, the 3 are a bit brighter but there is a shield in the LED housing that blocks direct light, looks like a circle. When I tested them out of the car it was brighter but when installed not much difference.
aren't these the same ones that a few members had issues with: Bulb Mods
?
if so, I would be very careful and keep an eye on the plastic cover. i actually used some piaa wedge bulbs (no led) and they matched up fine but not any brighter than stocker.
No, its a totally different bulb. The Hoen are dLED, so no heat. The ones that a few guys put in are incandescant high outputs which you simply dont do. Stick those in small housings and it will melt plastic.
Those PIAA wedge W5W are also incandescant, I would keep an eye on those for heat damage. The added blue coatings retain heat despite the PIAA being a 5W same as stock. I actually bought some also, both PIAA white and PIAA yellow but when I shot them with the laser temp gun they were well over 100 degrees which may cause problems after time.
Gmoney. Thanks for the write up and the background research on the product! So basically you would just stick with 2 since the 3 doesn't make any difference once installed? Also, did you use them in your license plate or sidemarkers?
I did pick up the license plate bulbs, Im just as impressed with those as well.
Yes, I think the extra money is not worth it with that round thing blocking all the light anyways. Would be perfect for cars with citylights in the headlight though.
Im waiting on sidemarker bulbs, they are making an amber one which would work great with the suncoast clear side markers.
By the urging of gmoney, I went ahead and ordered the dual-axis LED bulbs. I love them! I recommend this product to everyone. It took me 5 minutes to install them in my dark parking lot. While I was at it, I also installed the license plate lights. Here is a bad camera-phone picture of the city lights with the fog lights on. As you can see, the little LEDs totally overpower the fogs now.
