Where did you buy it?

[HyperMileQC]

I bought it on ProHeat products INC. the originator and inventor of fluid reservoir, motor engine flexible pad heaters.. It is the 125w 1 amp model. But instead of being rectangular it is round. It cost ~60$ with shipping to Canada and USD to CAN transfer.

Received and installed my H4 LED headlights yesterday. They are 25w, 1800 lm, 12v.
These kits are available on eBay for now 4-5 months. Paid 65$ for it, plus it was free shipping. Upgraded from 45w Sylvania EcoBright to 25w LED. The seller say that they are 6000k but I don't know if its real. I can say for sure it is bright white.

They fitted in the socket but the end of the light unit were too short so I was unable to fit the fans properly, so I came up with an idea of extending with threaded rod and nuts so I could fit the fans. Be carefull when you buy things off the Internet especially if it comes from China, you might not receive exactly what you expected.

The Sylvania EcoBright:

Do you have a link to the seller on ebay? Most of the searches I did came in at $85 and up.

Sorry for the delayed response, here the link :

1800LM Aluminum 50W H4 H7 UP 9005 9006 LED Headlight KIT 6000K Cree High Power | eBay

But you have to DIY an extension for the fan because the light unit is to short. If you still want to buy them, tell it to me and I'll take a few pics of the setup I did on my lights.

I might do this for my truck, so pics would be appreciated.

It might be different on your truck. But it is kind of weird that the unit is so short. Maybe you will need a longer extension.
