I've thought about these on my newage but not taken the jump and bought any yet....

I bought some Hb3 led units, not sure they are that bright, colour is much better, need the winter to come back round to test them properly....

Dude, the ONLY thing worth putting into a single bu;lb headlight, (H4), is an H4 bulb.

NOTHING else will be optically accurate enough to give the correct spread of light from the reflectors. Nothing.

Scoob headlights are pretty crap from the get go, don't make 'em worse.

Full projector retrofit is the only way to go. I did one on my old insignia a few years back, fooking awesome light output and focus.
