They are working so well so far!

1999 Chevy Suburban C1500. I needed two sentences. I've only had them for a few weeks and so far so good. If you're going to switch to LEDs, you should consider swapping out all the bulbs in your car from incandescent to LEDs. Along with switching to LEDs, also replace the turn signal relay, which is a simple plug and play connection that's typically easy to get to and costs less than $15. It's a lot easier to swap out a relay than it is to hook up a bunch of load resistors that just get hot and eat up a lot of battery life. I can forget to turn off the light and not worry about running out of battery. LED lights usually flash with old relays and as I found out LED lightbulbs may not even work properly until all other light sources are switched to LED. . Once I did that, the LED switches work great. LEDs still flash slightly faster than regular incandescent bulbs because they turn on and off instantly, unlike regular incandescent bulbs which gradually fade and therefore have a slower blinking rate. Do yourself a favor and buy an LED flasher relay. Love that it's bright white high beam, then the turn signals change to amber and back to white. It helps a lot at night and especially in foggy weather. Since I've also replaced the headlight bulbs with 9005/9006 LEDs, I can only use them at events so my LED headlights don't shine on the car in front of me when we're slowly pulling out of the parking lot. I'll let you know if they don't have a long lifespan. My other competitor bulbs only lasted a few months before some of the ICs quickly ignited. However, they should last at least a couple of years. Otherwise, I might just go back to lightbulbs if they prove short-lived. Overall very bright and works as advertised.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Out of fashion
