Lightbulb Finally changed my old factory light to LED lights

+1 jerkface...don't post awesome pics without telling us what you bought. I JUST bought HIDs to replace mine...I'd rather have LED.

That looks awful. You pretty much lost a ton of width in the beam pattern... Plus the foreground is where most of the focus of the light is which actually robs your eyes when driving and seeking "distance"....

Dropping in LEDs into a housing/projector that is not designed for it gives you sub par results as you've shown us... Not dissing your thing, it's just fact. There's a reason manufactures spend TONS of money on light optics, rather than just plopping in Chinese LEDS and calling it a day.

I'm pretty sure OP was referring to the city/driving lights now being LED's. I switched mine as well because the yellow did nothing for the aesthetics or actual performance of the light package. The LED's look much better and make it easier for other drivers to spot you in the rain. Looks great!

I'm hoping you're wrong and that the pic shows high beams. Otherwise, the OP is now one of those dicks on the road with lights that glare into oncoming traffic's eyes. You're not one of those, right?

Where did you get them? Link? Cost? Color temp? Can bus problems? Resistors?
