Default LED Headlights

Does anyone have any experience with J. W. Speaker, Flat 6 Illumination or Audette? Thanks.

I bought a pair and can't get the rings to snap on. Need to take to a body shop to see if they can get them on without either damaging the lights themselves or the car. ........

TONS of light. Less consumption.
Nothing solid about the pattern or legality of the lights.

I have them in my car but I'm using fluted H1 Yellow lens. Big improvement over my H1's with yellow lens. Honestly I only turned them on to adjust them. Haven't used them yet since my car is at the shop for a valve adjustment and I'm out of commission for a couple of weeks. BUT I did order a set from the place that Jason just posted, since I really liked the look of them. I will then install one side and see which I like best. Then sell the set I decide not to install.

I've been running JW Speaker and TruckLite in my Jeeps for a while now. I prefer the TruckLite for looks but I've been happy with both from a performance standpoint. I briefly considered the ones Audette builds but ultimately decided against because, as much as I think they fit my Jeeps well, I don't think they look right for the 964. Personal preference of course, and in the end I went with the Flat 6 Illumination HIDs.

Mine are super bright...I got some very little (micro) in line trick dimmers. Have not installed them yet. I got a few spares since they were shipped from China . Let me know if you need a couple.

I appreciate the offer. Let me check the brightness as I havent tested them at night yet. Do you know what is the right level for the lights? My car is a bout 4 ft away from the wall and the beam shoots about 3ft high.

I don't. Actually the car is out getting all the mechanical upgrades done and they commented how bright they were. I talked with Francios and showed him the dimmers I wanted to use. He was amazed by the size of them and their functionality. Once I get the car together I will test it out as well and see what is needed. Shoot me a pm if you need a couple of the dimmers and I will send them to you.
