Default Re: LED headlight bulbs

I bought the 6v leds and i think they are overhyped at the moment. i had both blow out on me within 6 months of regular driving. they would flicker at idle and didn't seem all that bright. yes i focused them the same way as the standard bulbs and the light pattern was the same. i put all stock bulbs back in my A and i'm happier that way. $1.45 a headlight bulb vs $50, i know what i'm buying. in all seriousness i think the 32-50cp headlight bulbs are great and so are all the stock bulbs. i turn the generator up at night and back down during the day, it's a 10 second switch and no tools needed. Now if they make the led's cheaper, add a smoothing capacitor to remove the flicker and a good deal brighter in the future i might try them again, but for now i say they are all bark no bite
