    Yea, not a problem. It took me two years of trying all the Chinese offerings to find these guys. My friends would usually show up every night after I closed and we would drink beers, bs, and work on our toys. When I started trying led led s I used them all as guinea pigs, you stopped over and pulled you truck in my shop....I was changing out bulbs like crazy to get real world feedback on what was good and what wasn't. Most wasn't lol. These guys really seem to have quality figured out, out of a few thousand bulbs I've sold I've only ever had to warranty two so I'll call that a win. They are also super bright and you can aim the beams on them to work with most headlight housings. The only one I couldn't make work was a 2015 Tacoma, it just scattered light everywhere but forward...must be the shape of the reflectors in the headlight housings. Pm me your year make model and what bulbs you are looking to swap out (headlights, fog, turn signals, back up, interior, tag, etc) and I'll make some recommendations.

    I rigged up my old GM 2500 HD with projectors and 55 watt HID lights. they are incredibly bright with a proper cutoff, but the HID kits are pricey for the quality ones. not looking to go that route again. the low beams finally failed and I changed them out with a set of LED bulbs that the local Bumper to Bumper were selling, they suck.

    @MACK E-6 @REO6205 @88 Alpha @kemosabi49 is ordering bulbs for the guys on here cool? Figured I should ask. I'm not making one red cent off of them, just trying to help out the community a lil if I can. Didn't want to come off as violating the rules. If it is please delete and accept my apologies.

    I need a set that I can burn the eyeballs out of other mother-####er on the road that doesn't know how to dim their gd brights when oncoming or the F-sticks in their brodozer trucks that dont know how to re-aim their headlights.

    Thanks.

    You have the brodozer problem there too? Do they lift the front like 6 inches higher than the rear there? I self admittinly like some questionable things but that is just stupid lol.
