What exactly were said bulbs "pumping" your bulbs should not be pumping anything...

How would LEDs "burn" your wires? The LED bulbs' draw is a fraction of halogen.

a few LEDs would never burn out a harness designed to power a 55W halogen bulb. the flickering, however, would definitely damage the LEDs themselves. and my v-leds drl flicker very noticeably and is very easy to see.

Do you have any pictures at night showing the amount of light from the LED's when high beams are on? Obviously I'm not expecting the whole road to light up but curious to see approx how much light from high beam function.

I just ordered a set. $20 for shipping to Canada is a bit outrageous though.
