To everyone who has the 2.5l and doesn't want HID or LED conversion kits and simply wants a plug and play LED halogen bulb that performs just as good as the HID and LED , buy the H11 LED 6K PIAA halogen bulbs, even tho they are quite pricy for 299$ , it's the closest match to your LED's and its legal, and best of all plug and play .

Figured I'd throw a picture of my Subispeed OLM HP Gen2 6000k Low Beam LED's in case anyone was wondering what they looked like or just for reference. They're Plug n Play and are super easy to install. Also have a great cut off as well.

Very nice, where did you purchase those ? Are they just on your lowbeam ( during night) or do you have another pair of them installed as your DRL as well ?

Dumb question: if 6 ohm resistors are required per bulb to fix hyper-flashing, would putting two sets of 6 ohm resistors in line with the rear bulbs and none with the fronts achieve the same end result?

You could, but we recommend adding a resistor for each location to spread out the heat.

 

Thanks!
