I came from a Subaru and a 97' Tahoe... Probably the only reason I really notice the AFS... That and I drive a lot at night on non lit roads... Not to mention in fog all the time, thats when you really can see them move. Still kinda want LEDS though...



Part one of many showed up for my new brakes!! C'mon fedex man hurry!!!

What are "bubbling leds"? Its funny to me seeing people hating on others upgrading their lights, saying its stupid haha. The AFS feature ended in 2010, old news man let it go. If it was so great why did they ditch it?

There's an issue with the new LED headlights bubbling inside the housing. The film or paint they lay down starts to rise after awhile. It really isn't that big of an issue. I've seen it, and it's only a spec that rises. No reason to call the mod or the modder stupid.

ummm...ok? I'm sure u wouldn't upgrade to "bubbling leds" if it was more affordable to you. So if sewell offered them for $200 for a set you would pass bc its stupid. I understand. Mine haven't bubbled yet and I've had them since last July. If they ever do I hope I can find a member to trade me for some regular headlights. I'll even through cash on top.


Moving on...........
