LED H4 Bulbs

It's been awhile since I posted on this thread, and today I finally had something new to share.

First the truck is running excellent and has almost 11,000 mile on the new drive train. My work and family schedule has limited my chance to drive it as much as I would like, but hopefully I'll have more opportunity over the next few months.

I purchased some 5 3/4" H4 headlamps when we were building the truck with hopes that they would be better than the old sealed beams that came with it originally. I know many have used the newer LED headlamps and with good success, but I just didn't like the looks of most of them, so I went the H4 route.

Recently I've noticed some new LED H4 bulbs that no longer required cooling fans and have a heat sink built into them to handle the heat, so I though I would give them a shot to see if the install was simple and they actually would work with my existing H4 headlamps. Here's what I purchased:

I bought a pair for the low beams and now I think I'm going to need to buy another pair for the highs.

Here are a few pics showing the results, comments?
