    LED bulbs for High Beam

    I'm looking for LED bulbs for the high beams that fit behind the dust caps w/o modifications. Any recommendations?

      LED's need a driver and heatsink that will take up space and make a perfect plug and play hard to find, at least for ones bright enough to do anything. These look promising but may not fit perfectly the way you want.

      Also the dust cap if you leave it on may cause premature failure of the LED due to heat. Just some things to consider.
      Now that I think about it, does the high beam even have a cover? I thought it was just the HID that did.

          Well considering they are claiming TWELVE THOUSAND lumens and a standard top of the line d2s HID bulb is 3500 lumens, I am gonna guess they are full of it and are junk.

            Skip LED bulbs for headlights, especially cheap Chinese knockoffs. Without the proper projectors and drivers, you won't throw light very far. I run OSRAM Xenarc Cool Blue Boost bulbs, paired with Morimoto XB foglight assemblies for the E46.
            TONs of clean, color corrected, light. Check out TheRetrofitSource.com

            Edit: Skip the splitters and resistors, no need for the E46.
