thank you just order fog lights for my BMWe60 and city for my 911tt

 

Does anyone know if there are any led headlights that work decently?

Error code is OK, melted housing would be a no no.

I thought a say a link somewhere off on of these threads but can't seem to find it.

Thanks,

LED headlights?

 

Yup, as in LEDs for the low beams and high beams

 

As far as I know, there are no aftermarket options available for that. There's not even that many production cars out there with LED headlights yet.

 

Back in stock. Just ordered mine, thanks guys! I'll let you know if I ever stumble upon the site that sells LED headlights again.

 

Yep, just ordered mine..city lights and license plate

 

Just ordered two sets..one for the P and one for the A.

 

are there any problems with the lisence plate LEDs?

-Do they trigger an error message?
-They don't burn too hot?

 

No errors, they are high powered led on a heat sink looking device which uses 5w of energy so temp is like the stock tube looking bulbs and the car does not sense a problem as the draw is the same as a regular bulb you just replaced. At 5w a bulb gets hot to the touch, ask me how I know! Learned that a long time ago and wont make the mistake again.

 

ok. I'm not as well experienced as others here, but I just got done reading horror stories about $400 housing replacements and no warranty assistance from the LED supplier. I don't have to replace parts and have the supplier tell me the lisence plate light is not aligned correctly.

 

I think that with any mod you have to be prepared to pay to play if its ECU flash, suspension, lights, hids and the like. People often ask me why I mod the cars I own, 99% are happy with the way it is from day one, but if your at all worried about dealers / warranty, breaking parts blah blah blah def. dont change anything that potentially can cause a headache.

i will say that goes for everything except suspension on this car, stock alignment, nevermind the rest of it, is just terrible

 

I disagree. I think what you say holds for people who build 700+ hp cars, but for those who only have the appatite for light mods should be able to expect light bulbs not to melt housings, and a descent warranty. I'm not new to modding, or paying for it. The Cobra in my signature has had 5 engines in its time, and I never once complained to the engine builder or tuner. But if a lightbulb melts a clip or wire, the seller damned-well better expect to hear from me.

I'm willing to accept risk for performance modifications, not for LEDs. If you're the seller, can tell me the lisence plate LEDs aren't going to do anything funky in getting hot, or trip a light, I'm game, but if there's a chance of replacing $400 worth of parts because of an LED, I'm not interested.

 

Valid point

 

I was one of the unlucky ones to have experienced a melted housing because of those aftermarket bulbs so I definitely was a bit hesitant at first about these LED bulbs. I have since then changed my stance since I picked up 2 sets which works well. I'm also a staunch believer in warranty concerns dictating how I should choose to modify my car. I haven't gone the 700 hp route because of that. I've stuck with mainly light modifications as a result.
