If you replace the headlight bulbs with LED replacements will thw bulb out warning still work with the LEDs ?

 

Most likely yes. I've completely overhauled fog lights, running lights and high beams with LED. All I can that the difference to normal bulbs is staggering.

I started by replacing driving lights with Phillips Ultinon Pro 9100 H7 series LED (5800K light range). Bulb out warning was appearing approx 50% of time so not always.
This was already a major improvement to stock lights however I wanted to try out some other brand also.

I then ordered Novsight 120w H7 LED kit which is 6500K and put those on. Wow what a upgrade over the Phillips.
I then ordered same Novsight 120w HB4 9600 LED 6500K kit for fog lights also and put those Phillips Ultinon Pro LED's to high beams.

So now when I drive with fog fog lights and normal driving lights on it is pure white light and extremely bright.
Phillips LED's were OK and definite improvement over stock and they will do as high beams.

The difference to start situation is like you were blind but now you can see

Regarding bulb out warning light... I had odometer light bulb burned so I removed the cluster to replace the burned bulb and at the same time removed that bulb warning light bulb.
Problem solved.

 

Unless you get the right bulbs doesn't it create a fire hazard though? The Canbus is what keeps the voltages regulated isn't it? Without that the LEDs are getting fried with voltage no?

 

No fire hazard. These LED's have internal fans to keep temperature down. Usually LED light have either internal resistor or external (that needs to be purchased separately) that keeps the voltage in right level that it does not trigger 'burnt bulb' warning. Only downside without resistor is warning light in dash that might come and go intermittently.

 

I just replaced my headlights and fog lights with LasFit LEDs and they work great. The old fog light LEDs triggered a bulb-out warning light. The new fog light bulbs took care of that. The fog lights do have a fan to keep the temps down. These bulbs were recommended by other owners adn they were right and the cost was very good. They are having a New Year's sale. https://www.lasfit.com/

 

Only fog lights on

Fog and driving lights on (no high beams)

 

Now I have an idea of the much better visual distance. Looks like I'll be adding these to the "To Do" list. Thanks for the pics.

 

Very nice but what is the part numbers you used, there are six low beams for instance?

 

I have these currently:

Low beams: Novsight 120w H7 LED 6500K
Fog lights: Novsight 120w HB4 9600 LED 6500K

Here in Finland those kits go around 140$ per kit
