Changing bulbs out once a year can't be too big a hurdle to run the ones you want, can it?

I don't see the reasoning behind the problem with LED bulbs. They're brighter which would seem safer. As long as they're not burned out or maybe not in headlight housings which aren't designed for them which might blind oncoming drivers, but for everywhere else they're safer IMO.

Cool.

But the unfortunate reality is that our opinions don’t mean a damn thing. The state is intent on controlling certain things, and exterior bulbs on vehicles matters a lot in Virginia.

Oh well. My life is not wrapped around LEDs. Life goes on.

Well, my low-beams, DRLs, fog lights, reverse lights and tag lights are all back to halogen. Took around 90 minutes and some cussing to complete the swap. I’ll return to the inspection site and I’m sure she’ll pass muster.

Not eager to do that swap job again anytime soon.

Will sell-off my LED exterior bulb package, including high-quality low-beams, DRLs, reverse lights, tagain lights, puddle lights. All top-shelf stuff.

Look for a post in Classifieds shortly.

Curious what low beam lights you have and do you have any output shots like against a wall?
