H7 led

[t0a]

Gidday, long time lurker first time poster. Has anybody replaced the H7 (low beam) with an led set up? I'm quite interested in doing it to my ve 2011 series 2. I've seen the HID kit available on eBay but want led. Tried to fit a conversion kit but the clip that retains the bulb hindered the fan body, also didn't realize that I would need a different dust cover on the back of the headlight housing. So just asking if anyone has done this and what your set up was, leds wise, Stock dust cover or had to buy one of the rubber jobbies?
Cheers

LED sucks. No where near bright enough right now.

So..... Hid?

Have you got projector style lights or just normal ones? HID in non projector will suck for other road users as light will be scattered everywhere.

Projector

Read these were good for a member in the HSV forum.

Thinking of changing to these one day.

Cheers Xplaya, but I only have the stock headlights, non projection. As wraith said they would cause havoc to the other drivers. Guess that only really leaves me with H7 Light Bulbs Super White 55W?

Used these and they were pretty good

narva and Phillips do a plus range in the halogen, supposed to be brighter, go further etc, that's if you stay wth halogen

Osram Night Breakers are my go to globes for all my vehicles. Nice crisp, useful, white light for a halogen. Stock 55w means you're not running the risk of damaging lenses or wiring like some of the gimmicky over-wattage types. I've never used the philips xtreme vision, but I've seen good reviews.

I have these in my lowbeams:

From memory they cost me just on $90 for the set and I have Autotechnica HID's in the highbeams which were a little cheaper from memory. They're the All in One kits, so there's no drilling etc, all plug & play.
