What I don't like about LEDs are reports that it won't warm the lenses enough to help melt snow when it sticks.
I never had the "snow problem" with my Truck-Lites.
Not to purchase them because the lights run cooler, not enough to melt snow is infantile.
Lamest excuse ever!

They are whiter and much brighter than stock. The headlight adjustment made a huge difference too. I did that myself and it is very nice.

Not if you live in a place where you get REAL snow. PA is not real snow. Newfoundland gets REAL snow. we measure our snow fall in yards!

its sticky crap too. my stock headlights heat up enough to melt it, people who have trucklites say they dont. big issue for me.

Calling people infantile, now thats lame!
