Default New leds bulbs review, now for the headlights

Hello to all,

This week I have tested some new led bulbs for the headlights, with very good results.
The problem is that I cannot post more pictures here, because I have already exceeded my quota, how I can solve this problem?

Don't play with us on this topic; you better be serious!

We've been hurt before by High-hopes for LEDs and are very vulnerable . . .



So what's the story? Are these available as replacement bulbs, or are housings necessary?

Left side, normal bulb, right side 194 tower smt leds. This bulb is perfect for this use, because it illuminates the interior of the lighthouse perfectly, in the same way and with the same intensity that the incandescent standar bulb.

Left side supernova bulb, right side 194 tower smt bulb. The supernova bulb give a more intense light, but, this bulb doesn't illuminate the interior of the lighthousing so perfectly, the light is directional, the 194 smt tower gives the light 360º surrounding, the supernova lighting angle is 180º

This is the appearance of the 194 smt tower bulb in the lighthousing, it is not really a very beautiful bulb!

And, this is the supernova bulb, better appearance and a little more intense light, but no so perfect final result (in my point of view, of course)
