OXILAM 2024 Upgraded 9012 LED Bulb, 18000LM 500% Brighter HIR2 LED Bulbs, 1:1 Size 6500K Cool White, Wireless Halogen Replacement Bulb, 2 Pack

I have a family member whose car used to go through incandescent headlight bulbs like howitzer shells. About every 6 months, I'd be replacing bulbs.I got sick of this and converted the car to LED headlight bulbs. I purchased a reasonably-priced pair from Sealight that had excellent reviews. They were brighter, reasonably priced ($36 a pair), and threw a good, even pattern of light. The only downside was that they were bulkier and had a wiring harness with an electronics module (about the size of a pack of matches) in the middle of it. I was able to tuck the wire and module inside the headlight housing so it wasn't a big deal, but I would have preferred bulbs without the extra wire. There isn't much spare room for all that stuff.The first pair I bought lasted 2 years before they started to dim and flicker. Bench testing showed that the individual LEDs were making poor contact. Pressing on the dark LEDs would cause them to sometimes light back up (and blind me in the process-- those little suckers are BRIGHT when they're aimed right at your eye).I attributed this to heat being retained in the headlight housing, which I assume caused either the solder bond to fail, or damage to the LED die itself. This leads to intermittent contact, with flickering or dead LEDs being the result. The next pair of LED headlights I bought (from the same company as before) suffered the same fate-- dimness after 2 years and one completely dead headlight.This time around, I chose a different vendor. These Oxilam LED lamps are more compact than the previous ones I'd bought. All of the electronics are contained in the base of the LED itself-- no wiring harness, no external electronics module to hide in the headlight housing.I was skeptical when I saw the small LED lamps but crossed my fingers and installed them anyway. Included with the bulbs are a pair of tiny white cotton gloves which are, I assume, to keep skin oils off of the LEDs. This is a concern with the glass envelopes of conventional incandescent headlights but I'm not aware of it being a problem with LEDs. Nevertheless, I put on the gloves and changed out the bulbs.I turned the key on to verify that they both worked and was impressed with the light output. I didn't drive the car, but in the garage the output looks very bright and consistent. So far so good.Longevity is anyone's guess since they've been in the car less than 24 hours as of this writing. For the $35 they cost, if they last a couple of years like their predecessors, I'll be impressed. The last pair of Sylvania halogen bulbs I installed in this car cost $28 and barely made it to the 6 month mark. These are brighter and, at least in theory, run cooler. So far, these are a good value.

Got these for our Dart, and they worked out great, brighter than OE halogen bulbs and gives the car an updated look. The headlights are OE projector style and these still shine nice and bright. Installation was not so bad, just followed a Youtube video about it, just the access holes are kind of small, but that's not a bulb issue. These fit right in, and the car has no "Bulb out" light on the dash. I would buy these again.

I got these for my girlfriends vehicle. They fit perfectly, and installed the same as the stock bulb. They are much brighter and have a much crisper white than even the brightest halogens available. They are affordable, and have been doing well for the past several weeks. If they continue holding up, I am going to get some for my own vehicles.

I can't say enough good things about these LED headlights! They are absolutely fantastic and deserve every bit of a five-star rating.First and foremost, they are incredibly bright, which significantly improves my night driving experience. The clarity and visibility they provide are outstanding.They fit my car perfectly, and the installation was a breeze. The fact that they are so easy to install is a huge plus, especially for someone like me who isn't a car expert.But what truly seals the deal is the unbeatable price. These headlights are an incredible deal for the quality you're getting.I was so impressed with their performance that I didn't stop at just the headlights – I also purchased their fog lights for my vehicle, and I even ordered a set for my sister's car. That's how much I trust and rely on these lights!I would highly recommend and re-purchase these LED headlights without a second thought. In fact, I'd buy them ten times over if I had to. They are a game-changer when it comes to car lighting, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase.

Works as expected, often get flashed for being a little to bright. Worth the cost. One month or so installed and working as it should

Fits a 2013 Chevrolet Volt perfectly. Install took 10 minutes for both sides; just make sure you move the air intake filter box to the side for easier access on the passenger. In the photos, the LED is on the left, Phillips bulb on the right. The Volt only has one bulb socket for both high and low beam. There is a shutter that is up for "low beam" and down for "high beam", so just buy one pair and you'll be set. Seems a bit brighter than my old high brightness Phillips, but I'm looking forward to testing on the road.Edit: After driving in the dark a couple of times, I can say that my visibility is definitely better with the LEDs installed. Hoping they will last a long time!

I actually replaced a Morimoto HID kit (4500K capsules) with these. The ballasts were creating a LOT of RF interference, and the capsules were starting to go. They wouldn't reliable strike. The removal of the HID kit took longer than it took to install these.I had limited space to install, so these fit the bill. The tiny fan isn't perfectly balanced (I mean, look at the price, these aren't super high-end or anything), so it does make some noise and a vibration can be felt when you put your hand on the headlight housing.They put out a pretty decent light pattern (through projectors). It isn't' as smooth as the HID system, but overall very acceptable. There is the typical dead spot for LEDs, but you don't notice it when driving. The light output is about the same as the HID kit but a little whiter. Fortunately, these LEDs are more around the 5500K mark - not as blue as 6500K lights would be. They also don't exhibit any noticeable greenish tint (yet anyway) cheaper LEDs do. HID's are about 2x brighter than halogens, so these weren't 400% brighter, more like 200% brighter.Overall, I'm happy with these. The price is no different than a good set of halogens, yet they are definitely brighter than halogens.
