bought them yesterday....thanks for sharing...i am going to mention this on the c32/c55 thread.

3 to 7 days.....ground shipping is free...you can pay more for faster shipping, but thats not needed imo.

I don't see any mention of a resistor on this one nor a pic on the rear side of the festoon LEDs.

I just did a few minutes ago in the garage. It took all of ten minutes to install. I will snap a few pics but I'm not sure how to post them.. They do look great. Kinda like the new OEM Lexus lights.
