Looks like your Hellas are the US-version (with 3 aiming nubs), rather than the E-Code (Euro approved version). The E-Code are better lights. These Koito lights are also E-Code spec, should be pretty good lights. Unfortunately, I won't be in a position to install mine for a long while.

Dont know why others bought them, but regular sealed beam headlights have crap for seeing at night AND are a pain to replace. I got a set so that once I get the light installed it’s a snap to replace the H4 bulb and no need to monkey around with adjusting the beam…but I guess I’m just lazy that way.

What drew me in was one pair of glass headlights with halogen bulbs, a new harness, & relays for around the price of one decent sealed beam headlight. I bought 'em hoping to improve my dim headlights, & for the price these are worth a shot.

My local dealership didn't show up on the list, so I had them sent to the next nearest. About 3 miles from a jobsite. Tax included $18.33 per kit. I bought 3 sets. One pair each for 3 projects.

Mine took 1 day. But the email telling me they were in came from a different email addy, so after a week or two I went hunting for it. And it had been there right along. Oops. 🥴

I ordered a couple sets of these a few weeks ago and they came in a week. I tried to order another set for my buddy’s Jeep and I got an email saying they were sold out and my order was canceled. Anyone else running into this issue? I did install a set in my bronco and they are a major improvement over stock for sure. I can sell my buddy my extra pair, but at the price point I was gonna keep some on the shelf for future use. What vendors are you guys buying them from? I went through Toyota parts direct website.

Just ordered two sets for my daughters JK. So far they should be here on the 7th? No emails telling me they are sold out so far. Second set is just for backups in case they burn out.
