Thats pretty bad ***! I keep seeing them on Ebay and passing over them. I installed regular LEDs on my reverse, in which theyre pretty damn bright, but no match for Cree.

Need to add a toggle switch for those so you can blind that a$$hats that tailgate you at night.

Those are super bright. One question though, how would they be that focused in top picture without replacing the housing lense?

Pretty cool. In the photo posted by the OP, the light appears to have its own "housing" in which to direct the light. But what do I know, I'm just a monkey...

The side LEDs are just to "fill" the housing and the front has a concave lens. They make both with and with out the side LEDs because they aren't really needed. This is a upgrade I'll be doing for the rest of my life because how great they are.

These two look good. top link says 3watts and the bottom says 7watts, the price reflects that. The only thing i noticed was the first link actually has the cree logo and pics of the chip and the other only states it uses cree, either way im sure there both awesome

installed.. First i have to say this is by far the easiest mod ive ever done on a vehicle, literately took 5mn. The leds look great and output is better then stock. The picture of the lights showing on the garage are from 12ft.

3watt. Even with the 7watt i dont think youll get the nice round projection like on my tahoe since the bulbs and housing is smaller
