polobunny

QuickTL07

I dont want to replace the housing, i just want to replace the bulb guys,,, sorry for not being clear.

truonghthe

I would go with HID but careful not to blind oncoming traffic.

QuickTL07

those are for headlights and i wonder if they run super hott.

The heat sinks get hot, but the bulb runs pretty cool.

I have similar bulbs for my DRL and the OEM bulbs melt ice fast whereas the LEDs don't melt the ice at all.

thoiboi

ouch pricey for an eBay kit of questionable quality... i would have recommended these if that was your budget: H-Series Morimoto XB LED Bulbs - Automotive LED Signal Bulbs - The Retrofit Source

Oh Sickest TL

iTrader: (3)

LOL I just put in HIDs in the inspire set up. love them, but other drivers seem to hate them haha

nismotypeS

Which Led fog lights do everyone run?

eastcoastguy

The only way not to blind traffic with HID's in the fogs is to cover the front of the bulb so its just reflecting in the housing. Otherwise you will annoy other drivers, which tends to be a common thing and people dont care.

QuickTL07

Guys, its actually funny with my headlights on with oem lights, they flash at me that i blind them... i guess not my problem eh i will make a review and video once installed

EvilVirus

Its probably because you need to adjust your headlights and yes it can be an issue as you may blind someone and they crash into you or others.

polobunny

Agree with EvilVirus, really important you verify your headlights and adjust them if they're not ok! I never get flashed in the TL and see the road just fine, and that's perfect like that.

I don't get flashed when I drive the 07 TL-S with Osram CBI but, I get it for 15 MDX.

truonghthe

Those MDX headlight is nice at night however I don't know why people flashing you, are you living in the wood?

I got flashed the other night for stock HID's lol.

GP16, what foglight led kit did you go with ? I know nothing of this new LED foglight stuff!

06TLMatt

I get flashed constantly for having just my low beams on, no fogs or any other lights on the car, I don't know why. I never meet any other TL's at night so I don't know how bright they are to other drivers, I've always thought they lit up the road pretty well though, minus the fogs which do next to nothing compared to other cars that I've had.

truonghthe

the TL beam properly aim isn't blinding at all, I think you must meet those people who thought the Automotive industry still use halogen standard. I got flash several time for a stock bulb and the headlight aim that way since it leave Marysville OH.

I am not in the wood...I guess they haven't seen many bright headlights like the ones on new MDX.

lovic87

In my '04 I went with a 3k 35w HID kit. I think I'll upgrade the stock HIDs to 55w over winter for the low/highs, but I also live in a rural area with a ton of animals trying to make themselves my hood ornaments at night time.

^^Yep that's what I have but I only paid $25 for mine.

I have Nokya Yellows in my foglights

I can vouch for the one "Frosty" was advertising by gtlightingusa because it's what I use in my DRL

I see gtlightingusa no longer exists, but you can find the exact same "cree 2400" lumen bulbs on ebay.

QuickTL07

Ok at least i'm not the only one that is going crazy with oem lights and getting flashed on

QuickTL07

I like the set that i have, it has a build in fan inside that will keep it KooL thats one of the reasons why i got it

thoiboi

Just like Frosty...


soory, easy jab there...

interesting. Are they plug and play or require a kit like HIDs?

QuickTL07

i got the kit on Tuesday and it looks like plug and play from my understanding,,, i would hope, plus they have great warranty !

Comfy

The best way to go LED is to get the sealed LED unit from Morimoto. This would be safe and look cool as well. Yes, you would be replacing the whole unit but I assume it is otherwise plug and play.

thoiboi

Too bad they don't have a compatible kit for the 3G Tl unlike the TSX


I got some and they didn't fit so threw them on an 09 Accord. They're definitely sexy

Comfy

Oh really ...... I assumed that all Honda / Acuras used similar equipment. That's a shame. Glad that you were able to use it for the Accord.

thoiboi

nope, that'd make too much sense and save too much money for US and them.

mazen222

I went with 6000k VLEDS and i love them, direct fit, no rewiring or extra load that comes from HIDs
they were 75$ each, very bright (850 lumen?)

quanaman

$75 per bulb? That's a bit much.




I decided to reuse my current HID kit since it won't cost me anything. Gonna wait a bit for a better LED solution for fogs.
