It clearly states LED SIDELIGHTS 501 W5W T10 Wedge type No cutting or rewiring with resistors.
So they must be ok.Guess we will not find out untill someone takes the plunge.

And you believe everything that is on sale on ebay?
i would take it with a pinch of salt and ask for their returns policy first before buying.

Finally got some photos take of mine. You can see the difference in colour and brightness over standard. Good match for my HID's!

I have cabled tied the bulbs inside the engine bay for now, as the slots that OLDOILER spoke of are covered by my HID ballasts.

Mine are 4.3k H7R ("R" means they stop glare) so after about 30 secs, they go less blueish, and go to a OEM Xenon colour. Brightness is superb over the Halogens.
The photo was taken very quickly after the lights were turned on.


Edit:
Heres what they go to after a 30 secs or so. Crisp white.

OEM Xenons? Nope, mine aint. I though OEM Xenons only came with projector lamps?


Mine were just standard Halogens, and i installed an HID kit (Bulbs and ballasts)
