Very nice. Thank you for posting that. I just found my next order item. I wonder if anybody around on here has them that could say good or bad on them. I just ordered all of my led light bars for my front bumper

If they're anything like a spot light or fog light then they should be awesome. May even run with the HIDs. If that is the case then it would be way better as they make a fraction of the heat and use even less power.

Those LED headlight bulbs look promising. Gotta look into them.

Just checked into them. A friend of mine is a Zuess offroad dealer, he said those lights are as close as you can get to an HID but better. They have a lifetime warranty and said that they are a company that stands behind their product. I may check with him and see what he could get for a group buy deal if enough people are interested.

Would be interested in some real world experiences with the led bulbs. Hate my hids but like the slight blue color.

Subscribed for later results. I'd really like to see pics of these installed and get a review. Seems promising.

If any of you have run the LED reverse lights from Retro-Solutions, you'll have a pretty good idea of the difference before and after. Significantly brighter than the stock headlights with halogen bulbs (at least 9007 bulbs). Light projects further down the road, better peripheral illumination and still a relatively crisp cutoff so you aren't blinding oncoming traffic.
I would still take a properly aimed projector with HID over the LED's, but they beat the hell out of HID's in a stock housing.
I'd rate them: HID's w/ projectors > LED's > Halogen > HID w/o projectors.
Keep in mind I don't own a 6.7 so I don't have any direct experience in that regard. I have run them in my OBS, Mustang, Jeep SxS and ATV with positive results in all of them.
The light output in terms of color and clarity is comparable to LED light bars.

Let us what know what you can get them for or a group buy, I might be interested in a set too

If you're talking about a stock halogen bulb and saying they are better/brighter than hids in stock housings then the newer trucks must be much different. My hids light up the road more than two halogen trucks side by side would. I'm sure they are plenty of people on here who would agree.

He probably comes from the thought that being cheap and putting HIDs in the stock housing and blinding all the oncoming drivers is a douche thing to do.

I'll let you guys know later this afternoon. They appear to be built similar to an HID kit as they also have a ballast box and are plug and play. Lifetime warranty is nice as well, seems like these will take a lot more abuse and have a lot longer life. I would think they would run more efficient than an HID as there is not as much heat or power consumption from an LED and the little ballast even has a cooling fan on it.
