Let us know if they overheat and melt your lens.
I know from eight months' experience that the Jam Straits don't overheat, but Mike may be entirely right about other LED bulbs being dangerously hot...Jam Strait has some patented heatsink technology in its circuitry. Their 1156R Super Brights don't get hot at all.
I can't vouch for other brands though. In fact I would be very careful even about JS's Hyper Brights, which claim to be twice as bright as their Super Brights.
Gone but not forgotten: two W123 sedans and two W124 wagons.
