The LEDs are nice, I've had them in the bug for a couple years and love them. Only problem is the light is focused straight out so the whole lens doesn't light up the same but they are bright as hell!
Cosmics look great... The car is looking really nice

Chuck, I'm guessing you had to replace flashers when you went to the LEDs?

I don't know about how the focused light will light up,but there are 2 options on the 1156 bulbs (narrow,wide) I chose the wide,so maybe they will have better coverage.... :?:
