Beat to death, i know...

Question though, how do the LED's perform in conjunction with the dimming feature? Courtesy lighting/with headlights activated?

Also... i just ordered/installed the $15 GP Thunder bulbs (direct from GP Thunder) over the weekend. 8500k. Saw a lot of good back-and-forth about them on numerous threads, so i figured I'd use them as a place-holder until i made a decision on which LED to choose. Long story short, wasn't impressed. At all. Cutting up my poor hands wasn't worth the $15. Definitely got rid of the dingy yellow color, but are barely visible during the day (honestly, I have to question if they're even working at times) and even at night, they seem far less bright than stocks.
You get what you pay for...

I know I'm the first to mention the GP on this thread, but in case anyone is reading this and thinking about taking the less expensive route, save your $20bill and put it towards LED's!

I really need to finally pull the trigger on some LUX's now...
