Hi, yes I can see this one now, but the other thread with your van pictures are still not coming through.

I tried installing the new led headlights. They didn't fit. There is not enough clearance between the back of the led fan and a piece of plastic on the van. My low beam EV reading was 8.5 at the hot spot, high beam 10.5, the led was 9.6. I took some pictures but I took them in RAW. Will upload later.

Can the plastic be cut? What is the plastic there for?

Here are some pictures of them side by side and clearance issues.

On the high beam side there's lots of room. I have to look at it again but going to wait until I go to work so I can grab a step up bit.

I really do not like LED lights. The factory specs are more than ample.

I think so too. I've never said to myself, gee my headlights aren't doing the job. And I don't stay on the asphalt either.
