I changed to a set of LEDs and they looked great. After a month or so now they blink. So pissed.

I'm almost positive it is federal law you can't have red or blue lights in the front of your car. My buddy got a ticket for having blue lights on his windshield wiper fluid sprayers on the hood :/

I ordered these and have not had any issues with them yet. Had them in about 2 weeks.

Gman...u can also try another vendor on the site...JWMotoring. They shipped quick and I have not had any problems with them, other than making my reverse lights look really dull and yellow! Good to have options. Good luck!

I ordered mine from AAC ......INCREDIBLE difference. Everyone should replace those ugly yellowish factory lights.
