BEST LED BULBS!!
This is my 4th or 5th set of bulbs from Fahren. I will only buy LED bulbs from here. They are built extremely well. Always very bright and what a difference driving at night! I mean holy freaking crap. These are so pure white that they make the junk halogen bulbs look yellow. I haven't had 1 bulb burn out yet. Installation is always super simple! FYI if your cars manufacturers built the car around the installed bulb into the headlight assembly. The fault is not on any company that you purchase aftermarket parts from! EVER!

Great for a 2003 Honda Civic. Learning curve on installation.
The media could not be loaded. If you still have the long lasting, Stanley halogen bulbs in your 2003 Honda Civic Hybrid, take them out and put these in. You will have clear 40000 lumen light. I tried the brighter Sealight 55,000 lumen X4’s but felt they had too much upward scatter for other drivers. Correct any fogginess, cracks or loss of clarity in your current housings. Buy a correction kit or new assemblies to fix that problem. You will continue to lose light even with new bulbs. The decoder packs and bulb chassis’s are high quality and their color compliments the factory Blue Opal Metallic color of my car. They look grey in the listing photos they are definitely blue. See my media uploads for better view of these fresh out of Fahren’s secure packaging. I wish the wiring harness of the bulb assemblies were longer so I cloud mount the cool decoder packs in a more secure and visible area. They are out of sight, securely away from the engine’s serpentine belt. Working room is tight and you need patience getting these in and aimed. Dielectric grease applied to the plugs will help keep water out of contacts. Installation of the bulbs upside down is possible. more light goes into the trees than ahead. It is also possible to install the new retainer rings in backwards making it impossible to twist in the bulbs. A lot went wrong trying to install these but I have no regrets and I learned a lot. This modification offers a big return on investment. Clear, Led headlights add resale value. I now have better light than most vehicles on the road at night. I bought a second pair to have on hand.

Two months in, great color, beam pattern and working great
I must have read reviews on 20+ different LED headlights before deciding the purchase these. Based on my driving experience, many of the aftermarket LEDs blind oncoming drivers (had that done several times to me on suburban roads), and other reports of poor quality / failures were my primary concern. Bought these based on reviews, installed them in early June, and have been very pleased over these past two months.As background, we inherited a 2008 Honda Civic with <20k miles about 2 years ago, which is perfect for my new teenage drivers. The one thing I really disliked about the car is the headlights -- they are yellow, and the car sits low to the ground, so night driving was difficult, even for me. I am also a hobbyist detailer, so it's not the plastic lenses (they were in good shape, but I polished them to near-new condition anyway).As background, my wife and I have been driving higher end cars with HIDs for over 20 years, and I now have a car with OEM LEDs. Whenever we rent cars with halogens, I'm always a little disappointed -- and the Civic was worse than any rental that I had.These weren't an easy install, but that was due to the Civic -- you need to go in from the wheel well to change the headlights (really Honda!). Had the lights been accessible from the hood, I probably could have been done in 10 minutes. You do need to find a place for the little electronics box that is attached to the bulb, but they give you what most setups need to tie it to something (wire ties and soft pads to prevent rattles). Depending on your vehicle fitment, you may need to use a little of your own ingenuity (I used longer wire ties that I had in the house, but again, I had a unique install).The brightness and beam throw on these is great -- first thing I did was pull the car out to a level street with a parked car, and pulled up behind that car from about 100ft away to see if the beam would shine into that cars rear window too much. They didn't. I then did the same thing from the opposite direction, driving towards the front of the car, and driving past it to simulate oncoming traffic. Again, I wanted to make sure I wouldn't blind an oncoming driver. Again, no issue.Once both tests were passed, I then went for a ride in my dark residential neighborhood (no street lights) -- WOW, what a difference. Night driving went from dismal to very good. I've driven this car once a week or so at night, and have only been flashed once by an oncoming driver -- that does happen sometimes when driving up a hill in my car with factory LEDs (when the oncoming driver is driving downhill) as unlike HIDs, LEDs don't self-level so people occasionally think you are driving with your high beams when driving uphill.Color temperature is pretty close to my factory LEDs (white, not blue, and I'm not sure I can explain the difference without seeing them side-by-side), and while the beam pattern isn't quite as good as an OEM LED array, it's FAR better than the halogens. Keep in mind, these retrofit kits can't possibly match a factory setup that has 3-5 LED elements in a horizontal array that were engineered specifically for that vehicle's front end.I will update this review should these cause any issues, as it's only been 2 months...Sept 2023 update — these continue to work flawlessly for the 2-1/2 years we had then installed. We’ve just sold this vehicle, but we were very happy with the quality and performance of this product.
