[QUOTE="4x4TruckLEDs.com, post: 1235843, member: 24442"] What's funny is we're 100% within the law to sell our bulbs :) Snowsled don't get any ideas! lol. Of course if you do try them snow (or have ordered them) and are not happy you know we'll stand behind the product with a money back guarantee. So we're not worried. Another thing I find funny is some guy on a forum thinks he can shut down my business... I've been doing this years and i've been in the aftermarket lighting industry since 1999... i THINK I know a thing or two about lighting by now and the laws lol. I wonder if he plans to email the DOT about companies like Baja Designs, Rigid Industries, Putco, Hella, KC who all make led lighting products (light bars, pods, headlight bulbs, etc...) to which none of them are legal for road use ... or if he's just trying to start a fight with me because I stood up to his nasty comments... ehh what can ya do. Can't please everybody. Kinda funny that he has nothing better to do then make himself look bad. Anytime you replace a bulb you need to align it. If you go with LED/HID/Higher power halogens you'll want to align your headlights. Also fair warning. If you go with a higher power halogen bulb make SURE you upgrade the wire harness or double check the wiring. In the old days (well about 15 years ago) there was a HUGE Problem with people upgrading their halogens to more powerful ones and causing issues. The wiring harnesses could not handle the higher load and you'd get melted wires/harnesses on fire. Ask me how I know (1.. I worked in the industry as a manufacturer of halogen bulbs and 2.. i melted my own harness during test way back when). This is why, at least in the old days, you saw upgraded wiring harnesses for the halogens to prevent this. NOW adays however I bet auto manufacturers have beefed up the headlight harnesses to prevent this from happening. Since every manufacturer is now selling higher power bulbs it only made sense for the vehicle manufacturers to do this. LED's don't have this issue, less power. HID's don't have this issue either, as they use a relay harness to pull power from your battery (and if your HID kit does NOT do this, find a new kit, a real HID kit needs to pull power from the vehicle's battery and uses a relay harness) [/QUOTE]
