Actually, I did. But I'm guessing I got the wrong ones. None of them fit. It's kinda difficult to know what will fit and what won't. If anybody can find exact fit LED's then hell yea post it. It'll be a lot easier than this. But this post will help anybody who does purchase the wrong ones...

I added it to the main DIY on the top of the 2nd Gen section. Nice work. I really wish more people would take the time to write up stuff they do like this. It doesn't take much time I don't think, and it really makes the site better. Thanks!

Thanks alot! Next time I'll actually take pictures during the process rather than taking it all apart and trying to recap what I did!

Great post. Ive been wanting to do this and I think I will soon.

Also, might be a good idea to include Total time from start to finish and total cost to your main post, I think all DIY should have this, helps people realize how long and how much its gonna take to do the MOD.

I know this is an old post but has anyone figured out which one plugs in correctly? I am wanting to do this but figured would be easier without switching all the bulbs. But will just order bulbs if I have to.

Ok I'm a little lost on this too. If you order the 194 led's will they plug right into the stock twist locks? superbright sells other twist locks I wanna make sure I don't need extra ****

endisnear yes this means i will be using your diy to do this.

is the headlight switch supposed to be lit up? mines not, and i see you have the same switch i got, so i guess its supposed to be, and my bulb is just out?
