These Bulbs DO NOT Blind oncoming traffic! Simple!

These are becoming a very popular solution for the 964's with many sets sold to 964 users already. The L90 964 club members in the UK have bought quite a few sets with great success. I can't comment on any valid critical write ups, but I can comment on all the positive feedback on many of the different Porsche groups on Rennlist, TIPEC, Even magazine features in Porsche GB.
They DO not in any way blind oncoming traffic - no matter what car or vehicle they are fitted to! They are a similar design to the standard H4 bulb as I have mentioned previously on here.
If you are not convinced, I will always give you a refund!

But no-one has asked for a refund yet!

Steve,
Thanks for the info. As usual, you see more comments from critics than happy customers.
after trying two sets of LED H4 bulbs I was not satisfied but hooked on the path to modern bright lighting. both sets i ordered from amazon from a seller called sirius led.
first bulb didn't fit (similar design to bizman's, but maybe just a little longer), so I didn't have a chance to check the beam pattern. second set had the metallic ribbon heat syncs (exactly as the ones being sold on superbrightleds.com). Fit wise they were great but the beam pattern was terrible, in my opinion. there were hot spots and also dim spots. granted overall the road lit up better than traditional incandescent bulbs, but it was not something i could live with on a day to day basis...
the oem H4 set up was great with even lighting good enough for everyday use, but i was hooked to the added brightness of LED bulbs...so i splurged and ordered the lumetechnik led headlight conversion: http://www.rpmtechnik.co.uk/shop/lum...ht-conversion/
$1620 for the complete oem housing, chrome rings, clear lens, and a proper LED projector high/low beam conversion, shipped from UK. I should have these in a couple weeks and will post feedback. I'm not sure if the clear lens will look good, but want to give it a try and worst case scenario I throw my H4 lenses back in there.
pricey yes, but not pricier than any modern oem LED/HID projector set ups (actually, $1620 is a bargain considering what some manufacturers want to charge!)
no offense to bizman and his effort to trying and bring modern lighting to our older cars, but imho swapping out the bulb is not doing it right
were you able to get these installed? would love to see how they fitted and the quality of the lights
I bought a set of your CREE H4 HIDs for my Carrera 3.2 and they didn't fit as seen in the pics below.
(Other than cutting through the back of my headlights which then exposes the lights to the environment), can you kindly advise on next steps please. Thanks.
Hi
Sorry you have had this problem.
Those look like the G5 bulbs. They work for most all our 964 customers but we have had 4 or 5 owners who have had this issue. When Porsche hand welded the headlight covers into the wing on the odd occasion the cowl would be twisted round a little resulting in less room at the back of the bulb area. This also happens sometimes with aftermarket wings being fitted. We can exchange them for one of our New LED sets that we have sourced specifically with a shorter rear part to overcome this.
Contact me direct on woodypeck@outlook.com and we will exchange these or refund you whichever you prefer.

Many thanks for the offer. Yes I would like to swap to the newer LED set with the shorter rears. I've written to you directly to arrange the swap. Cheers!
