did anyone buy them yet or will i have to be the first one experimenting? I saw some bulbs with 36 LEDs on the H7 which will put out white light instead of my NASTY stock halogens but I will be pissed to see errr messages. I also would wanna put HIDs on them as I guarantee it will not work. Also wouldnt want those "xenon" halogen bulbs.

Go for it, LED bulbs are supposed to be super bright.
I'd assume, as long as the wattage is the same, should be fine.

Looking to buy H7 leds to replace the nasty OEM ones..... does it need resistors to rid off the errors? It is for DRL (mandatory in Canada).

Oh, nope, I dont have H7 flash highbeam LED's. just regular bulbs. Eugene installed HID's into the H7 port of the car. I'm not sure of any error message but it should be sweet. He had 3700k bulbs in it though.
I'm sure the H7 LED bulbs will throw error messages unless you put a resistor.
