LED Headlight Bulbs Upgrade

[1SloRam]

The q20s sit just off of 12 and 6 and are not adjustable. Beam pattern is a little jacked, lol, but for the price I cant complain too much though

As long as it works for ya, lol.

If the bulbs have plastic bases, the part that has the cut outs that lock into the housing, you can use a pair of nippers and clip the plastic back to get a proper fit. I had to do that with my daughters Civic. No way I was spending a fortune on a 13 year old car with 212k miles college kids car. Just gotta go slow and take off a tiny bit at a time.

If you have projector headlights just loosen the 3 screws, turn to where its 9/3 and tighten back down.

I thought about that but I didn't want to strain the wires with the bulb pointing off in a wierd direction, but maybe I'll do it anyways. I found some auxito leds that are supposed to have close to 360 light that look affordable that I'm considering now. I want to try and modify the q20s to fit in the high beam 9005 slot so they dont go to waste

I know we've been focused on projectors a lot here, but a couple of quick questions....
Has it been found "clocking" is still needed in the "quad" headlights?
If you replace just the 2 low beam bulbs with LED, and leave the high and fog at halogen, will that cause computer codes? Meaning is it better to replace them all to LED while you are in there.
And I'm really nervous about just installing bulbs without running into flickering issues (with every bulb), is it best to just install the additional harnesses anyway and be done with it??
I'll take anybody's opinion or experiences I can get in regards to the purchased bulbs, harness usage, and things to do, or avoid, on a quad LED headlight set-up.

you dont have to change them all, wont cause any issues, it just looks silly to have different color lights if you use fogs or highs often. I dont have any experience to answer the other questions

Just wanted to show pictures comparing the auxbeam q20s vs halogens in the projectors. I wasnt satisfied with the wierd beam pattern and dead spots so I asked auxbeam to send the 9005 collar so I can swap them to my high beams, which they sent, so gotta say that's good customer service. Did some research and landed on the auxito y13, adjustable plus thin although less bright than the q20.

First is the q20 at 20k lumen or so they say, 2nd is halogen, you can see the led might even be worse to be honest. I just really like the look of the white led light versus the yellowish halogens. If the y13 doesnt perform well, I will look at an hid kit.

Hi l, just wondering if anyone had any flickering issues, I changed to LED bulds, and in Alfaobd enabled led low beam and also enabled high intensity discharge and still having a minor flicker, not sure what else to do

I am using alpharex pro G2 with canbus ready LED bulbs. Only other led bulbs is the reverse lights. The taillights are factory housings.

Are you happy with the light output with these? I tried the stock halogens, Sylvania Silverstar Ultras, and Cougar Motor Evolution+ LEDs and still ended up taking them out. It's dissapointing because I did like the looks of them.

I use auxbeam in my 2021 classic. Installed them in jan no issues.

MB7640, were these the ones you used? Auxbeam 4400LM
