I also went with LED headlight bulbs on my wifes old Sport. No they were not nearly as good as the factory LED'S, but a significant improvement over stock for very little money.

Im skeptical since amazon is saying they wont fit properly.

Also concerned since the item/company you linked appear to be different than the ones you took a picture of.

How are the headlight beams? Are they level against a wall or a lot of dispersion? Are drivers flashing you lol?
I think the beams are good. Haven't had anyone flash me lol
Just posted a pic from this morning with the lights shining against my neighbor's house.

On the fogs, I did cover the front portion of the bulb so the light wouldn't shine straight out of the front of the bulb. I thought it was too bright with the front of the bulb not covered. Covering the front of the bulb made it a big difference in softening up the light beam.

Good food for thought. Your picture shows beamtech and your link goes to another product. Did you post the wrong link?

Also, are they both high/low beam?

The beamtech pic was posted by someone else. The H13 bulbs I got from Amazon are Hikari. Yes, Hikari have high and low beams.

Did you need the canbus harness as well, or did you just plug in the heads and fogs are they worked.

Be sure to rotate the bulb so the LED’s face the 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock position, if I remember right. It’s in the instructions for installing the H13’s.

Ordered the headlights from Amazon and went with wxman’s recommendation, and ordered the supernovas for the fogs. We shall see what the combo of them look like.
