For those of us that didn't opt for the LED group, but want the LED's, this may help some of you. Over the weekend, I replaced my headlight bulbs, fog lights, DRL's, and front blinker bulbs with LED's I got from Amazon. Total cost was about $100 for everything. Still waiting for the tail light LED's and reverse lights to be delivered so I can test those as well.
So far, everything is working perfectly and the LED's look so much better than regular bulbs, and so much better light!
Anyone else tried this? Sorry I don't have any pics yet but will try to get a few this evening.

Can you provide item information? $100 seems almost too cheap for headlight and fog light bulbs.

I really can't see any comparison to these replacement headlight LEDs and the factory units. There may well indeed be bright light but how it is focused and dispersed upon the roadway just isn't going to measure up.

Obviously it's hard to beat the factory LED's. But it is better than the basic halogen bulbs.
And the beam pattern I'm getting it fine. :like:

How hard was the blinker light install?
SUPER EASY on the Rubicon. There's one small bolt to remove (I think it was 5/16) at the front of the fender liner, then just pull the liner down and you can reach inside and twist the bulb holder out. You access both the blinker bulb and DRL bulb from there.

That's like putting HID bulbs into a halogen headlight, sure it's brighter but it's very dispersed and probably blinding other drivers. I know from experience as I used to do this back in the day.

How are the headlight beams? Are they level against a wall or a lot of dispersion? Are drivers flashing you lol?
