    I still can't believe how long I drove my Volvo with the weak OEM setup (2015, non LED). I see them on the road at night sometimes now and can't believe so many people are driving with such weak light. H*ll, I can't believe they're even legal. Looks like they are running on 6v or something.

    Link the LED setup you're talking about please. I'd like to compare.

    I agree, last night was the first night I drove on these new projectors without having problems (screws kept backing out, forgot the thread lock). It’s substantially better. If anyone has a Volvo of this generation or even a kenworth or Pete and have crappy light output I heavily suggest doing a projector retrofit. Most guys would be fine with the deep space lighting kits and they have quite a few different kits.

    I really think Volvo should’ve done a recall and changed suppliers for their headlights because it’s ####ing dangerous.

    Yep, you really don't realize how bad it is until you see the difference.
