I tested them in a C4 for another web site and they worked quite well. To read the article, click here.
LEDs are being adapted in residential and commercial buildings also primarily due to about 40% energy savings and quality of light. For use in buildings, drivers are needed to step down the voltage, which of course, is not needed for automotive use. Also, lack of filament means durability in dealing with road impacts. With 30,000 hours life expectancy, I expect this pair to out last the car. Just my two cents...
