Re: Meet GheyRay: Lower, Wider, Lighter!

I did some LED's in my Lexus, but the driving bulbs in the headlights keep going out. Also one in the drivers side foot well. Also it feels like they get really hot and can almost smell the heat in the interior. I'm wondering if I ought to get rid of them and go back to normal bulbs. I guess it makes sense that if the LED bulbs have a much lower resistance, that a lot more current is going through there and things maybe are getting a lot hotter. Is it a bad idea in general to put LED's in spots where regular bulbs were meant to go.
