  1. So far the lights are just awesome. I have not noticed the flickering since the first night but have not really parked and looked for it. I didn't document or pic the install as its very basic. She and the car are in southern cal right now but when she gets back I will see if the flickering persists. When I called Vleds about this they said if it continued, an inline resister may cure that. Stay tuned
  2. I got the Vleds LMZ LED system in place in the 2013 Edge. I ordered the 9006 45 watt, in 5k. We now have light and they are definitely an improvement. I do notice very slight flickering while stopped but its not all the time. Connections are good, and I thought maybe it was attributed to the auto lights or maybe even a voltage fluctuation due to alternator cycling but it does it regardless of how I have lights switched and climate system set to not cycle alternator. I plan on calling Vleds tomorrow and asking if they have any idea what it may be. Overall we are happy and its nice to be able to see. I did cut a round hole in the back of the headlight caps the same size of the light to allow cooling from the internal fans in the lights.
  3. Thanks to Wizard and Prinzll... I will post up once I have it installed and share my reults
  4. Thanks to everyone for chiming in. I am going to pull the trigger on the Vleds system. They have told me that if I am not 100% satisfied I can return for a full refund. With that said, I am doing it. My big question is I may have to come up with some modified cover for the back of the housing. Since the bulb currently sits inside the housing. The rep at Vleds said with the heatsink setup etc my cap/cover probably will not work and if it does fit, it will get too hot inside. So, I am looking for ideas to keep dust etc out and still keep the back of the Vled system open and exposed to the air where it can cool... Lets hear your ideas if your able to envision what my minor dilemma is..... I am thinking maybe some sort of moldable plastic/wax maybe?? not sure
  5. Something has to be done. Still amazed at how terrible lights are even after aiming them on this new of a car. Probably will go with vled but want to make sure I can refund if not happy with them at $250
  6. http://www.vleds.com/led-headlights/9006-hb4/lmz-ultra.html Looking at Vleds 9006 system for $250 is it all that?
  7. Thanks for educating me. Funny you mention it, but I live in the middle of nowhere with fog, deer, beavers, elk, and narrow roads. My 2002 camry had better lighting than the edge does.
  8. Thank.you.. I tried that and they just are not very bright. I wonder if a sylvania silverstar ultra in 9006 would be brighter than the stock phillips 9012
  9. Greetings, My gal just got a 2013 Edge and the lighting is horrible. I have been going over some of the options for brighter light and I am looking for some current recommendations for the best route to improve this. From what I am seeing, HID seems to be the route to go... Please help me decide which kit
