[QUOTE="Mr. BR, post: 1362111, member: 28246"] Got mine installed....trimmed back the rubber boot as others have described but I could not get the bulb to lock into place with the boot installed. It seems the clip that holds bulb's base in place is very close the heatsink and putting the boot in place just wouldn't let it engage. So I simply trimmed back more boot and it worked great. I noted that the little cooling fan blows air IN toward the LED unit but I think I still have enough of the heatsink still exposed to allow the heat to escape. Took a ride around the n'hood last night and results match what others have said... good light pattern, bright color, road signs are very bright.... was expecting to possibly adjust the beam lower but for now, I'm leaving it as is.
