unfortunately the way these headlights are designed are extremely poor when it comes to the distribution of light. From my experience the $10 led bulbs light up almost similar to that of a $200 bulb. The best option would be to install new rings but if your looking for something super white look for a colour shade that will be higher than 7000k. those will give you a nice Ice white almost blue tinted white


but with that being said the mtec ones have great reviews as well as the ICE bulbs

Hello Guys,
Not to high-jack the thread, but I am also in the same boat . One quick question, can I just get the bulb, or I have to get the whole part with the bulb in it? What I see online is the whole part with LED setup etc.
I am trying to take the bulb out from the old assembly. It is like conventional bulb setup, gets really loose, however; doesnt come completely out.... Or maybe I have not applied that much force yet.
When I see online, I see following option as just bulb replacement, but doesnt look like it will fit my assembly

Any help will be appreciated
Thanks.

I don't think your bulb size is a T10/194. You need to know your bulb size first then shop for the size. You did not list your year or model so no one will be able to help you further.
