I wanted to show off my current LEDs in my front corners, tails, reverse, and license. I plan to do more, but it will be a little bit.

Nice job, all looks awesome. Those led bulbs are bright. I may go ahead and order some bulbs for myself.

Thanks! So far I love these bulbs, and everyone who sees them is very impressed. The LEDs in the reverse lights to definitely make a difference. I tried them with the stock bulbs (didn't think to video that) and then with the LEDs. I have absolutely no problems backing up in the dark.

The bulbs in the front corners are so bright I can use them as a side light when I'm driving near a barricade wall on the highway at night. Granted it's not as bright as a directed beam, but they're still very bright.

I plan to add LEDs to the high mount brake light and the interior dome and map lights next. I'll have videos of that, if I don't get impatient and put them in while I'm bored at work! :D
 






I wonder how a second gen explorer front end would look with those. I would need 4 of those and the little parking light in the corner which is a 916 bulb i believe.

Would be pretty expensive. But the reverse lights i will order... looking for something brighter.
 






looks good matt do u got aim or yahoo

I think a gen2 would look really good with these. I won't deny they're costly, but they're worth every penny I spent on them for look and function alike.

I'm still at work for another hour, then 30-45 minutes to get home. I'll look you up when I get to the computer.

Yeah, I'll do the full parts list when I stet home to the computer. It'll take too long from my iPhone.

I just got in, but I think you're offline already. I'll be on the same schedule tomorrow, but maybe Friday I can be on.
 












Your Front Corner Bulbs stay white with the headlight on correct?

Does that cause any type of glare with the extra white light coming form the front?

Also got pics of them with the headlights on?
