The LEDs I ordered to stick on the outside of my headlight do not look near as good as the ones jonctovar uses. I looked his up and they appear only to be suitable for inside an enclosure because the actual bulb is exposed. The ones I ordered had much fewer actual LEDs. Could anyone point me in the direction of ones that would recreate this look but have the mounting tape/are suitable for the wet? Thanks!

True, but the real damage is done outside, see maxichons thread to clean the insides.

You cut the clear lip? The part about a half-inch wide?
