notice any dimming issue after a year of usage? LED is notorious known for dimming.

I'm using it quite some time almost a year. No problem and i don't have any radio inference at all. Check your groundings.
Yes they have H7 version for sale too.

Looks like 5000K is not available for h7. Only 6000k

Guys.. thinking to change my halogen H7 into LED H7. Plug and Play. Cost is around Rm250.
Any idea? Does this work well with the original reflector? Will glare other road users?

I bought these H1 and H7 LED Bulbs:

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/AcooSun-H4-...2311.0.0.r5SXbD

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Slim-CSP-LE...2311.0.0.l8zr1s

their prices fluctuate between USD18.00 to USD 22.00. These bulbs are shorter in length than most other models because of the fan and heatsink design,

I also bought aftermarket dust covers here that can fit the whole LED bulb inside.

The dust cover seems good to use.
All the while I been using performance halogen bulbs, but the lifespan too short. Around 1 year plus I need to change. So thinking to change LED for better reliability.
I got limited knowledge on LED bulb, first time changing, so prefer go to local shop for their service and 1 year warranty.

How does LED bulb work with the original reflector, does it glare other road user?

Works fine in my Elantra 2002 reflector housing, the light cutoff is sharp, mine looks like \___ \___ . I adjusted my headlights following this video, been using these LED bulbs for 3 months never got high beamed by anyone yet.

I don't see your post anywhere in this thread, I was responding to a couple posters here who were looking for H7.

Those bulbs are Canbus ready, you can read the feedbacks from the Russians who use Conti cars they don't have any issues.

They offer H4/9003/HB2 Hi/Lo so yes they support high low beam.

Did you visit the link? It's all there...

from my observation those LED headlight even from the german marque looks a bit whiter than 4300K HID. I'd assume a minimum 6000K or even 6500K. yes, 4000-4300K is the best balance between white and yellow from HID. been using HID for almost 15 years and I still prefer to use HID

Maybe they are out of stock. Mine is H7 5000K which give me close to pure white with some yellowish. Is way brighter than halogen does. And I've been thru lots of roadblocks at night be it JPJ, police and police traffic. no issue

What performance bulb you used having short lifespan? Try Ring Xenon 150 as they claim no compromise lifespan. Can get from eBay.

Oh that thread. From my survey H4 is very common, on the other hand H7 occasionally out of stock or not offered.

I had considered HID but my car headlight type is reflector, I don't want to risk blinding other drivers.

But 6500K get lots of attention during road block and it's the worst visibility during rain. Mine @ 5000K still okay.

LED work the best during dry road at night and total darkness to view its full potential.
