Bobs install & LED fogs photos.

I did the same. Yes the color is different but no more than the stock lights and the LEDs at least look more modern and put out more light.
Those look good, but I preferred a closer color match to the HID headlights. I found it with the (5K, 6-LED, 700LM version) predecessor to these (5K, 10-LED, 850LM) bulbs. As I understand it, the new version provides the same plug and play installation, very close approximation of HID color, and better light output than the stock halogens.
Yep, I've got the new 10 led version and they are plug and play, very happy with the color match to the HID. Great upgrade. :coolman:
Looks like I'm getting new ones now....
Pass side picture: Get rid of the .15 cent hose clamp. It sticks out like a sore thumb when compared to the AN fittings.
Doubt it considering they're LED's and most of the time LED's run fairly cool...
Which set matches the headlights? I had bobs and i didn't like the off coloring.
5K VLEDs are about the closest I've seen. The latest edition of these is their 10-LED, 850LM version.
I used these... similar if not the same as Bob's. They're a little whiter than the HIDs, but a LOT better match than the original halogen fogs.
And for less than $10, it's hard to beat

Were these also plug and play? Can you include a picture with them on for comparison?
Do you have a photo of how they look installed? Also, since I lack any true mechanical skills, how difficult was the installation?
Thanks!
Yep, absolutely plug & play with these. Some pics:

Thanks for the pics I'm sold.

I don't have any photos of my install to offer, but I'll point you to this thread where SteelTownStang posted photos of the same (5K, 6-LED, 700LM) bulbs I recommended.
As far as install goes, check out my post here.

not the best bulb but cheap... both of mine had the led's pop off
Yeah, considering that I got the pair for $8.49 at the time, I don't have great expectations for them. But it was cheap enough to try out.
But they're not projector types like the other listed here, either. I do think they're the same as those selling elsewhere for $30, but then again they could be cheaper knockoffs for all I know. Do the LEDs fall off the more expensive version of the same lights as well?

Any way to prevent that pre-install?
Ex--I used clear silicone around the aftermarket lights on the Foxbodies to prevent leaks.
Anything to do on these pre-emptive?
I guess they're cheap enough to replace every year if needed.
