I ordered a set of the Megalight +130 H11's above because, hey, at ~$35 why not. Just got them the other day but to me it doesn't seem like they are the right fit for my 2010 Base.

The reason I say this is that the new H11's have two little notches on the base that the existing bulbs do not (so they won't fit cleanly in the plug), and when comparing it looks like the plugs on the inside don't line up from one to the other.

Anyone else notice this, or have this issue?

I want an easy swap...should I switch to LED? If so, what would you guys recommend...
What was your choice after all? I also need to replace mine and saw this old post.

DRL uses highbeam and with all LEDs from Amazon/eBay will flicker. You have to install a set of modules for them but they will be at full power all the time. Some people find it too bright for DRL. I have LEDs installed for highbeam only and turned DRL off.

Just got H11 LED Headlight Bulb, CAR ROVER 60W 12000Lumens Extremely Bright 6000K H8 H9 CSP Chips Conversion Kit from Amazon as someone had suggested. I will test that tonight to see if it flickers. BTW, I have 2012 base.

Did those lights end up working for you? did you have to do any splicing of wires?

Xenondepot LED headlights has worked fantastic for me and I highly recommend them. Again, a little more money but as soon as you take them out of the box you can tell they use top notch materials. They have also spent a lot of time on CL with follow up customer service.

It held up pretty good. No splicing of wires BTW. It is much brighter than the old oem; however, other drivers around me didn't seem to care since everybody is having those lights on their SUV nowadays. I was about to change to the old light bulb if anyone honks at me, lol.
