Hi all,
I just fitted these LED bulbs to my '94 Mini. They seem to work great, and are MUCH brighter than the stock H4s. However, I haven't had them on for any real length of time. Very straightforward installation - plug and play, more or less... I did have to drill a 4cm hole in the back of the black plastic headlamp bowl to create enough space for the wiring and the IC box, which I pushed through into the front inner wing area. But the heatsink itself is still pretty close to the bowl's plastic, just 2-3mm away. I'm concerned that it might melt the plastic or even burn it. I don't know how hot these things get.
Does anyone have any experience of LED bulbs? Do the heatsinks get hot enough to be dangerous?
Thanks,
Ric
