Nah they're garbage for output. Do not buy them unless it's just for looks.
I will be taking them apart and retrofitting them with actual performing projectors at some point
Well, I was going to go the D2S at first, but the led is tempting. Cheap, instant performance with no ballasts or extra harnesses. From outside the car I think they'll all look more or less identical.
However, longevity makes me unsure. Would suck to have to bake the whole headlight again when...
I'm not sure how many lighting nerds we have, but this might be interesting for someone 😄
Compared stock LX470 H1 projector (squirrel finder delete + clear lens + Hikari Future bulbs) with an Amazon special LED projector and a micro D2s with 5k bulbs. I was shocked how well this sub $100 led...
I didn't get the dipped vs main beam. It's just low vs high here but I see what you mean now. Yes the first 2 were dipped then.
Second set would be dipped vs spotties
Sorry I'm not quite sure on the terminology. Those pictures are only the H1 projector, or what we would call low beam. Nothing else.
This would be with low beam vs everything turned on:
The bumper originally attached to the frame and body. I've trimmed so much off that the frame mounts are no longer in play. Still stable though after plating it to support the lights
