Good to know for other Prius owners wanting to do this mod.
Beam pattern looks good too.

I might do something like that to our I10, my wife complains about poor vision from the standard halogens but I'd rather not put overly bright HIDs in reflector housings not designed for it, nor LEDs if their spread is off.
These look like they would work.

The Insight had very poor lighting through its projector lenses with the OEM halogens and do handle my HIDs well without blinding issues, so I keep using those for now. But if the LEDs work well in the I10, who knows.

For education go to people unlike yourself.
