Longevity?

What's the life expectancy of these LED bulbs? I have little faith in tiny cooling fans, in my experience they don't last very long and once the fans go I suspect the lamps will overheat and fail in short order.

Getting ready to pull the trigger on these GTR Ultra 2.0..
Sadly I didn’t take before and after, I installed my old GTR’s in my moms crosstrek, she was complaining about her dim headlights but the GTR ultra 2.0’s are as bright as any HID kit I’ve had, I can’t recommend them enough.

The throw distance is as good as an HID kit if not better. LED tech has caught up 100% I used to be on the HID bandwagon, and the last gen of GTR ultra’s could not compete with an HID kit. The new ultra 2.0’s however are as bright and have the throw distance needed to be the best option.

Edit: I replaced the excellent Sealight Laxma LEDs with Boslla Bullet B4 LEDs designed for normal, snow/rain, and fog driving in August 2021. So far the Boslla bulbs are outstanding.

I decided to try these Sealight Laxma LEDs in my low beams and have been very happy. The specs claim a defined beam pattern with a cutoff similar to OEM so they won't blind oncoming drivers. I've had them in for a couple of weeks and nobody has flashed me. The illumination is outstanding and gets ridiculous when I add the high beams, which are these Auxbeams I added about a year ago.

Am i the only one who is having issues with the auxbeams flickering and then just going out? I've only had mine installed for maybe 6 months and they're already dying. I didn't even notice that big of a difference in brightness compared to regular halogen bulbs either.

Have you contacted them for a replacement?

I would find something else if they aren’t brighter than stock halogens

I ended up getting these. They seem brighter than the auxbeams, better reviews. I haven't driven with them yet but i'll try to remember to post an update.

It would be sick if you could get some night time output pictures with the DD’s.

My area has its share of fog & rain so I’ve been wanting yellow fogs for a while. Went with these Alla LEDs, which were reasonably priced at $19.99 and easy to install. I’ll post more once I have a chance to try them out. Also planning to do part one of the fog light mod ( thanks, @J.A. ).

My 4R is now all LEDs on the front end (except for the DRLs).

Just switched to the Auxbeam H11's and 9005's for my 06 Sport (thanks Formidable), but haven't pulled the trigger on a switch for my fogs based on feedback in this thread. Anyone have thoughts on halogens for my fogs that would match the 6500K temp of the Auxbeams?
