Bright, quiet and easy to install

An unbiased view without any compensation. TL; DR: These lamps are bright, cover a large area, are easy to install and much bluer than traditional halogen lamps (6000K). ) and have a good cut-off (until illuminated by oncoming traffic). Even when the engine is not running, the fans are almost inaudible. When the engine is running, they are completely invisible. The before and after photos speak for themselves. I would buy them again. 6 months update. Still, everything is fine, after a couple of flashes I had to adjust the case on the driver's side a bit, for some reason it was higher than before. Maybe the repairs from the reindeer strike caught on? (First installed the week I got my car back.) Maybe just use it more since it gets dark earlier? Anyway still very satisfied, rarely have to use high beam with it. In game season I can see them farther from the road so there are fewer surprises now. Minor details: After encountering another deer on a dark country road and making $6,700 in body shop sales, it was time to look into brighter than stock halogen headlights for my 2016 Subaru Crosstrek. I've looked at many brands and websites looking for what I believe to be unbiased reviews, but found that one of the top lightbulb reviewers on the web (Headlight Revolution) is from the same company as some of the lightbulbs they're reviewing (which isn't surprisingly, they came out above (over $200). The 2021 Acme-X H11 also scored well on a number of sites at less than half the price of the GTR 2.0 (specifically the $10 coupon). Bulbfacts dot com has some good information too. It was pretty easy to install. I had to move a few things to get to the bulbs, but it would be the same if I replaced the stock halogens. They were plug and play with no error codes. My low beams are not my DRLs, they may not work for this function. The ring that attaches to the OEM reflector body can be removed from the bulb, allowing you to rotate the bulb to get the correct orientation (LEDs at 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock) for good light reflection without glare. I'm a little skeptical that the friction joint holding the bulb will stay tight, time will tell. I've definitely noticed that they illuminate a much wider bright area. You notice more reflective tape on mailboxes and even on cars parked quite far from the road, in people's driveways etc. This is great for me because it allows me to see deer and other types of god beings earlier, if they try (sometimes unsuccessfully). ) cross the street. Street. If anything changes I will update my review. By the way, why did the chicken cross the road? To show the deer it's possible.
