Hi members after trying leds to no success, I think due to the projector type lens, to blue and dull I purchased some H9 Narva wiring connectors for $10 ( stock are H11 55w) and some H9 65w globes and wired the H9 connectors up. To fit the globes I had to trim (with side cutters) a smig off the top locator as the H9 is a bit wider than the H11 fitted the H9 globes and bingo much better Lo beam especially when you go from hi beam & driving lights
to lo beam. Also there is Youtube info sites on the upgrade.

Hi Hoges, surprising you had no success. I wouldn't go back to halogen after using mine for the last 12 months. What band did you try?

I would say that was your problem, 1800lm is not very bright. Mine are at least 5600lm per light.
