Very nice, everything all matches...don't know what took you so long for the lighting upgrades :buttkick:, but glad you finally came around lol

Painting the rad support makes a big difference that not many notice, details:deal:. I actually took scotch Brite and sanded mine down then shot it with flat black too.

Got any wall cutoff shots ?

Let us know how these turn out. Cob style can be unreliable. Cree chips are most common
I have researched every brand under the moon in the last 2 weeks and they all have positives and negatives about them. I bought these cause I guy I work with has them and I was impressed with the light output and price.

How long has your coworker had them installed? I know the cobs are insane bright but most cobs I've used have a short life span. Probably depends on application like anything else

He's had them about a month. I don't do alot of night time driving with the Tahoe. If they don't last long then I will probably go with some Vanquish Led's.

From what i have seen about those leds on eBay, they start fading the color in months, then they go bad turn off completely. When i decided to buy vanquishauto.com leds was when i was tired of trying cheap stuff on eBay. Im sure you will like the vanquishauto lights once you decided to get them and have them installed as I also did, still same brightness and color extremely white and have been using them for months without issues.
