I bought some LED's off Amazon for $36.99 a set. They fit perfect in the housing and behind the weather cap. I tried them.out this morning when it was dark, and Damn they are awesome! Will see how long they last for, but anyone trying to get the HID color look for their headlights, this is perfect!

I installed these in the fog lamps, and work great too. Not as HID look as the headlights, but are close.

I like them so much, I ordered a set of 9006's and 880's for my wife's Trailblazer.

I really like the look of those lights. Any issues with the install? Plug and play? Thanks for your time...

Complete plug and play. No mods to the housing at all. I am very happy with them. Put them in my wife's Trailblazer EXT today. Those had some minor housing mods, but worked good.

One thing to remember, the plug can be oriented either way, so when installing them make sure they work before bolting them back in. If the bulb doesn't work, turn the connector around.180°.

Did you fog/driving lights have the hooded bulbs? If yes, did you remove that part or does it have to go back on the new LED bulbs? The reason I ask is that my passenger side shield keeps coming off. I guess because I have to drive on gravel roads and the left side is always so rough it vibrates off.

Mine don't have any hoods, just took out the old bulbs and installed the new ones. The hoods on the 9006's stayed in the housings and help reflect the lighting really well. Will see if I can get a pic of both headlights on both vehicles

I lied, my fogs do have hoods, along with the headlights. I left them in place, and they work good. That's the hood in my headlight... They work good

I have a set in my Lightning. Yeah they look great for pictures but I absolutely hate driving with them at night. They just dont seem to have the throw that halogens have.
