Tired of my nice tint, low-effect on road, blinds other people cheap LED lights.
I want something that will actually help. I have to turn on my 22" light bar to actually see the road in the rain and I need to do something about it.
I honestly think stock halogen with a better tint (4500-5500k) would be an upgrade
same for the factory fog lights - good tint (5000k ish) but don't help compared to the stock bulbs which I may consider putting back in. Stock (left) vs low wattage led (right)
So far, no one has flashed me and they definitely are brighter and make it easier to see. At only $14.00, I figured I'd try them and if I did get flashed, I'd just go with Sylvania SilverStars.
Unfortunately my driveway slopes too much to get a good pic against the garage door. Maybe someone else can do it or if I'm out and about at night and see a nice wall, I'll try to get a pic.

Thanks. It would be much appreciated. I have my doubts about LED lights.
Not all LED's are manufactured the same. I know of at least 3 different types of LED 'bulbs'.
Each with their own light characteristics and patterns.
The round ones like in your picture being the weakest.
My Lasfit LED's (blade style) have 6 LED;s per side and there made to be installed in a specific orientation.
I'll try to get a wall shot this evening.
I will not go back to halogen.
Here's my lights
Headlights
Fog Lights
Both
Lights are 5700k and 1800lm
Only time I was flashed was with a load of cement bags in the rear.
Both headlights and fog lights are less than 2 months old.

Get the Turtle Wax headlight polishing kit and clean up those headlights, it will help a LOT.
