Nowhere near as bright as what? Stock? That would be almost impossible.

Yes as stock... I've been using their stuff on all my vehicles for years and the 3 led options I did were not even close to as bright as stock

Interesting. I have an 2008 Infiniti G35 as well as the Jeep and have read plenty of folks and have seen photos of LED's from that same website that were WAY brighter than stock, and I guarantee you the Infiniti bulbs stock are much brighter than my 2012 Jeep's interior bulbs. Weird.

Are the stock ones even LED's? I've never checked, but if so, they're the worst LED's I've ever seen.

Yes. I replaced all of my lighting, including license plate with led. I went with superbrightleds and they are at least 3x brighter than stock. I got cool white though. I've heard some of the other colors are not as bright.

I bought DDM's trash for my headlights and fogs. 55w 6000k bi-xenon. After waiting 3 weeks for them to finally come in,The headlights worked great for a month then the left and right took turns being out. If I turned the lights off and on repeatedly sometimes they would both come on. Most of the time they wouldn't. The fog lights would only flash five times and go out. I called DDM to trouble shoot and they had no clue what was wrong and tried to sell me code eliminators that I was previously sold that aren't even needed for the application. I then took to a shop and had the wiring checked. It was done perfectly. Called DDM back, they said if I would remove my kit, andpay postage both ways to ship my entire kit to them they would test each componant for a separate fee. One fee for failed parts and a higher fee if the part passed the testing. Then I would need to repurchuse any bad parts. I was already at around $165 for their kits and,the other bullsh!t they sold me that I didn't need Oh and no refund for the extra crap. Pulled their trash off, put my weak, yellow stockers back in and never looked back... Buncha crooks selling Chinese trash.

I have my reverse lights and license plate light done and both are bright as $hit but the dome light is a joke compared to my stock... My stock bulb is pretty damn bright in the 1st place though
