Hi, I've just ordered a set of the "ZY P6 110w 10400lm H7 Canbus" upgrade kit - I will report back to you guys when these LEDs have arrived and I've replaced the standard 55W halogen H7 bulbs with these LEDs. |

Did the replacement today. Relatively easy job, some minor adjustments to the H7 clips/mounts were needed to make them fit with the P6 LED bulbs. The focus point of the P6 LEDs are adjustable, and it was easy to get the LEDs in the same distance from the "bulb base" as the filament in the original H7.

However, headlights in UK are limited to 55w - anything greater is illegal for road use |

We have the same situation in Australia, people make these illegal modifications and it annoys the hell out of other approaching road users. |

Just to clarify, this modification is done on the high beam H7 bulb only. The new LED has the exact same power consumption (55w/bulb) as the original H7 halogen bulb. This high beam reflector is only on when the High beam headlights are turned on. In Norway it is allowed to have extra high beam lights in addition to the original high beams in the car. |
