Re: LED hedlamp install
No snow on the lakefront. Just rain and windy.
Btw are the LED lights that much brighter than the HID conversion bulbs?

Re: LED hedlamp install
Technically, Halogen lights (e.g., aircraft landing lights, spot lights, off-road flood lights) hold the leadership spot for absolute lumens output in the visible spectrum. But, that isn't the issue: headlights have to fall in line with DOT specs for safety, and in that role, LED technology meets/exceeds those limitations now. (I don't know 'bout U, but I've seen some of the LED headlights approaching me, and even when aimed properly - that still are almost too bright [even on LO beam] for me to see past to negotiate the road.)
LED technology AND automotive (headlight) applications are still on a very steep development curve, whereas HIDs are on the sidelines. It's too early to "put a stake in the ground" and declare a winner just yet (IMO).

Re: LED hedlamp install
I kept it simple and did the HID conversion. They are way better than stock headlights.

Re: LED hedlamp install
For the OEMs, LEDs are a godsend due to their stingy amp usage. When the industry is moving toward all electric vehicles, every watt saved is precious.
