      they will probably blind oncoming traffic. I cannot say for sure though, the light housings are set up to reflect a set brightness of bulb with the filament in a particular location, brighter bulbs and movement of the filament will result in aim changes.

      LED is like 4-5X life expectancy if it is like all the other led bulbs. it you go by hours, do a search. Those silverstars are junk, i got a notice in the mail of a money back class action lawsuit about them burning put too often.

      everything else is dependent of what you buy and what comes in the kit, just because it is a build replacement does not mean it is 100% match to the original bulb design.

      I would thin any led bulb would work if you replace them in pairs and match specs to the ballast.

      If the Silverstars are junk, which has been my experience, what would you recommend as a good replacement bulb? Are the Philips bulbs any good?
