Does anyone have experience with these brand of LEDs. They were on sale and I bought these, some dome lights, and reverse.


Would they void my warranty or hondacare?

I really feel like I should just cancel it ... I cant do anything without thinking I may void it

I have them on order now as well. I'm not really worried about the warranty issue as I can just put the standard halogen bulbs if they don't work out. Let's compare notes after installation.

 

It won't void your warranty.

Those LEDs won't last more than a year, I will be surprised if they last 6 months. Get quality LEDs. Diode dynamics and theretrofitsource have good LED headlight kits. Spend the money right the first time and don't have any headaches later down the road.

 

Do you know of any kits that offer warm LEDs? The super cool LEDs kill my already poor night vision.

 

I bought these LED's and after installing them, I thought they were dimmer (though whiter) than the OEM bulbs they replaced, so I returned them. I was pretty disappointed with them.

 

Food for thought, Bang for buck #1 and #2

Its amazon so try it and if you don't like them send them back?!

LED Test

 

When it comes to lighting, I avoid Amazon and eBay unless its coming from a reputable and well known seller in the lighting business. These kits and stuff that they sell for $30 are a rip off. I'm all for saving money but don't skimp on quality especially LED headlights when it not only affects your driving abilities but others as well. It's all about safety. You'll end up spending just as much to replace the bulbs multiple times than purchasing a quality product.

I've seen people buy $10 LED brake lights or blinkers and they're barely visible during the night. Imagine trying to see them during the day? It's an accident waiting to happen.

But back to LED headlights, I was never a huge fan of them. Only because of safety reasons. I always preferred a legit retrofit. But it can be costly but the output is superb. But through the years, LED bulbs for headlights have improved drastically. My Philips 5000k Halogen bulbs recently blew and I needed new bulbs. I was going to get VLEDS Micro Evolution LED bulbs for $175 but it was too costly (my whole interior, taillight and signals are fitted with VLEDS to the price of ~$350 in bulbs). I also started to research reputable site that deal with LEDs and went to TheRetrofitSource (TRS) and they were selling the Morimoto 2Stroke 2.0 for $120. Very reasonable price but even at $120, it was a little hard to swallow. Morimoto is a very good brand in the retrofitting scene. I was about to buy from them with a coupon code that dropped it to $108 but decided to check eBay. Found a reputable seller (lightwerkz) and purchased it lower than their asking price of $120 and lower than from TRS with the coupon code. Lightwerkz is popular in the retrofitting scene so I know I was in good hands and getting a legit product.

Got it in the mail in 2 days and I must say, I'm impressed with the light output from the Morimoto 2Stroke. Came with H11 harness and it was all plug and play. Brighter than my Philips that I had and it will last a lot longer (this was my second set of bulbs in less than 5 years). Only thing is that the bulb's fan produces a noticeable fan noise when on. It's expected. I'm tempted to buy another set and installing it on my fog lights (currently using the original OEM bulbs - 3300K yellowish look...ewww). Since I'm in no rush, I'll wait for the next sale or big discount code.

 

I have the Morimoto 2 Stroke in my high beams of my 2019 Accord. Fantastic output.

Was thinking of getting the same for the wife’s Odyssey it maybe the Diode Dynamics ones.

I looked at the Diode Dynamics SL1 as well. TRS did a test and the SL1's weren't as bright as as the other two but was close. But I've read that the light meter they were using isn't meant for metering LED lights (there are specific light meters for LEDs) as it will give some inconsistencies.

A friend of mine has the SL1 and he loves it. For $100-120, I'd go for the Morimoto and use that extra savings and get treat your wife to dinner

 

Xenon Depot (https://www.xenondepot.com/) and Headlight Revolution (https://headlightrevolution.com/) sell quality items as well. Projector housings are much more forgiving that regular non-projector parabolic reflector housing headlamp assemblies. Using just either one, to state an issue is comparing apples to oranges.

HID Revolution does a test on the same bulb using two different lamp assemblies so one can see how the LED bulb performs.

 

I ended up getting the Morimoto 2Stroke 2.0 and I'm loving it! I'm not a big fan of LED headlights unless its OEM but the cutoff and brightness of this is pretty damn good. I prefer HID retrofits but after getting into an accident with my Toyota Camry SE that had TSX HID retrofits and was totaled, I didn't want to spend the money on another retrofit for the Ody. I held out on getting LEDs for the headlights until it was tested and the quality improved. I paid a little over under $100 from TRS on eBay with best offer and coupons.
