Hi Bill,

My apologies for some of that wording and letting some personal frustrations creep into the end of the product review I did. Some of that should have been said offline. Too bad I can't edit that to be no more than a review. That's one of the things I've always disliked about the Brickboard, same as the first draft now being immediately emailed to the OP, not as before where it's the final version that got sent, which often has more information that occurs to you after seeing your initial reply, along with all the typo corrections.

You've been asking me to post something about my Auxito LED headlight experience for a while now and after four months of real world experience with two cars and two drivers under varying conditions, so I finally did.

I'm not going to recommend everyone switch to LEDs as they're not perfect and well beyond being street legal for brightness, or even recommend the Auxito Q16s over any other brand as I admittedly haven't tried them. I am very satisfied with the choice I made for trying the Q16s as a cheap $30 experiment after first doing my due diligence based on whatever information was available at the time, including independent casual reviews of theirs and other halogen headlight replacements. The Auxito SMD layout and design as well as the bulb fitment are in my opinion suitable for our jumbo sized reflectors, which were specifically designed for Volvo to use in North America with Ford's crappy common 9004 halogen bulb, just as Kitty says (same Ford who later bought Volvo). Some of the common beam pattern issues that I've seen mentioned about LEDs being used in a halogen reflector seem to be avoided or at least minimized in this Q16 bulb.

I encourage you to try a pair of Q16s and do your own analysis.

Cheers -Dave
