PIAA H7 nice bright white light, very bright. I use them on both of my Crossfires and they last a long time click here for PIAA bulbs

ps. These are not LED, normal bulbs that work really well with no light out warning on your instrument cluster.

I used LastFit Led headlights and I find them to work well. I live in a rural/suburban area and when I do drive at night they light the road up without blinding on coming traffic. H7 LED Bulbs 50W 5000LM 6000K | LCair Series, All-in-One This is the bulb I used.

I did change all the bulbs in the car. I was especially happy about the stop lights because they are supper bright and have kept people from hitting me. The bulbs are bright and I have not had a problem. Yes you do get a bulb-out notice, but I don't care they work well and other drivers can see me.

I have all LEDs accept the blinkers. I was blinding people while sitting at stop light.
I have no bulb out warnings. You just have to look for bulbs that say "No CAN BUS error".
I used the Lasfit H7 for the low beams and high beams, like Nelson. They work great and I'm old so I need the extra distance at night.

Update: Switches arrived over the weekend, took Freya to the shop where the faulty hazard switch/turn signal wooha was replaced. Everything works just fine now.

Just replaced headlights, fog lights, signal lights, high beam lights, marker lights, brake lights, backup lights (wow!), with LasFit LEDs. A problem emerged: the Hazard light switch failed, and so the signal lights work only if you hold down the hazard switch. New Hazard switch is already ordered as are license plate lights.
I live in rural southwest New Mexico next to the Gila Wilderness ... tons of curvy mountain roads, 30-mile-long straightaways through dust storm territory, and I'm older and really love the simple, safe, joy of seeing the road clearly in front of me.

*Hazard light switch does not engage/click/activate the hazard lights. The turn signal lights are part of the circuit, so, the switch fails, the turn signals fail. Great fun*
Costs: About $150 for the bulbs, $300 for labor. If you can install the lights yourself, great! I'm disabled, 67, and coming back from a complex hip replacement. I am no longer able to contort myself to change the builbs, and I have a storied history of, "simple," home and auto projects that became disasters. Fortunately, our little mountain town has an excellent independent import mechanic who's particularly strong in German and Italian cars. I have had better success than them in locating parts, thanks to our amazing community of Crossfire gurus, and they are very fair in their labor charges.
