I've been debating to buy these same headlights for a few weeks. I read some reviews that said they produce very little light, and another review that said you need HID's so that something in the housing does not melt? Not sure how much of this is true, if i can find the page again i'll post it. Basically i'm just curious as to how well there working out.

Thanks for the picture man, I'm looking at resistors on V-LED's and I have no idea which type I need.... what kind did you buy? Got a link?
I think this is the one that I need, maybe? And It says it comes with two resistors.... so I'd use one for each turn signal bulb? or do I use two per turn signal bulb?
