    Bdberry got a reaction from johanbrandon in Light bar, hikari led headlights   
    Just purchased my 18Dj Crossroads last week, already received some led stuff (+1 for prime). 
    Also replaced my passenger headlight housing, the OEM had moisture leaking in from somewhere. 
    Got around to installing most of it this weekend! Have any questions, let me know!

    I have not put mine in yet, they will be in this weekend, but I have done countless led/hid installs. Always get a canbus for your led just to be safe, better to have it and not need it, then to need it and not have it. Just get the right size, and when you put the led bulb in, make sure the chips are facing left and right , not up and down. They are very bright and might need adjusting. 
    If you want a fool proof alternative, HID bulbs are great, but require you to have some what electrical knowledge to put them in if you are newer to cars because of the relay harness/ballists etc. 
     
    Either one will greatly enhance the light output, just dont always go to cheap, you get what you pay for!
     
    I went with Hikari brand led bulb because they use the Philips chips. mine, with canbus, were just over $100
    I also bought led fog light bulbs, but went with an ebay bulb to test out
    ordered led license plate lights and reverse lights, 
    have a light bar coming in this week. 
     
    Hoping to install it all this weekend. Will post pics to give a better idea when they are in!

    JKeateon,  Thank you for explaining that.  I ordered a low beam set with the CANbus attached on the 14, they came in on the 28 and installed them this afternoon.  Don't look into the light after they are in.  Pretty darn bright in the daylight. 
     
    I want to check them out at night to see the difference.  I did make sure the flat sides facing the sides not up and down.

    Not to be rude, I am all for modding, but why not mod a car worth modding? The Journey is such a nice family vehicle, It would not be worth the $$ and time put into it for the outcome. Ive had many modified vehicles, Ive fabricated and done fully custom turbo kits etc, and the fun thing about building a racecar is being able to fix it when it breaks, because they always break. Enjoy the journey for what it is! you can buy a nice modified Nsrt-4 for $5k now a days which will be much more fun then the journey ever will be.

    im thinking its the bulb because i kept test fitting the stock halogen, and it would fit no problem. i am going to troubleshoot and contact company if not fitting. this is the reason i went with a $100 pair to avoid these stupid issues.

    Try switching bulbs with the passenger side.  Maybe the bulb has a piece of uncut flashing or something on it.  If the problem moves you know what the issue is.  No issues when I changed mine to HID bulbs. Both slid in no problem, although the drivers side is a bitch....
