    • @thejungleexplorer
      @thejungleexplorer  2 роки тому +1

      I have had to replace them yet, so I have not tried any out. What I normally do it go over to Amazon and look for the bulb that has the most and the highest rating. One thing though. If the lenses on your blinkers are plastics and in bad shape, you might consider replacing them or having them resurfaced be a professional. That will help a lot to increase their visibility.

    I just installed the same exact LED headlights on my 2001 Ford e450 today and I was wondering if you have experienced any flickering problems since you installed yours

    • @thejungleexplorer
      @thejungleexplorer  5 років тому

      No. I have these bulbs installed on two vehicles and have not had any problems with them. I love them. By any chance is the vehicle in question a Chevy Silverado? I have a 2011 2500HD (do not have these bulbs on it yet) and I have that same problem, but it is not the lights, it is the actual plug itself, that keeps burning out. I have had to replace the plug three times because of flickering due to the contacts burning up down inside the plug. You really cannot see that the plug is burned unless you look down into the hole on the plug with a flashlight. I would check your plug out, that maybe your problem.
