Another LED Replacement Question

[berb]

I know there are a lot of threads on LED replacement bulbs. I have read a lot of them and I am sure there are more I have not read. I know replacing the head light units is the best way to go, but I do not have the money to replace the headlights, fog lights and fender lights to LED, so I have decided on blub replacements instead. I have narrowed down my search to 4 bulb companies based on user reviews and price. I am looking for people to respond who have either used the bulbs I'm considering OR know someone who has. I am also interested in your customer service experience if there are any issues.

Also to confirm my research; the bulb codes are as follows:
Head Light = H13
Fog Lights = H11
DRLs and Turn Signals = 7440 / 7443 / T20

Brands I am considering
Cheaper = Alla Lighting, Beam Tech, and Sea Light
More Expensive = SV.4

The other question I have is which blub, of the brand you chose, did you go with?
Meaning if you chose the Beam Tech which one did you go with? Normally, I would pick the 2nd option below because it has 24K reviews, but I trust the reviews on this forum before amazon reviews.

Thank you for the help.

Prepare to hear from the headlight zealots, company promoters wanting you to use their products, wanna-be-physicists that will debate wavelength travel, reflection, dispersion, etc. , and the general a-holes that respond to this hot topic to give you a wide range of opinions to your question...

I may fall in the last category.

I run the H13 16000LM you listed in two vehicles with no issues - I adjusted aim alignment with a Sniper Optical Headlight Aimer compensating for vehicle lift. I would buy the Beamtechs again without hesitation.

Thank you. This is the type of response I was looking for.

Now the question is on you front turns, are they single or two bulbs?

Why did you go full replacement vs staying with the bulbs.

If you do end up replacing the whole unit(s), then look into LOYO Lighting. They have great products and customer service.

Had enough money in the wallet to do so.

So you should be good with that package.

I just installed the Beamtech H13's in my JT and they work great. No Tazer needed. The DRL's plugged right in, but in my case the Fog Lamp or Driving Lamp replacements did not .. the Fog Lamp bulbs have alignment ribs for both the lamp housing and the OEM plug. Once I stared at them for a minute or two I opted to shave off the offending ribs that did not align with an Exacto Blade and that fixed the issue. Once the new bulbs fit the housing and plug they worked perfectly. I found this issue reported online with other H16 bulbs ... so it's not just a Beamtech thing. The LEDS work great with the Jeep Halogen reflectors ... good cut off, just make sure you have them adjusted properly.
