Nice and bright, but don't seem to last as long as OEM. I had them in my aux. lights and they burned out rather quickly!! Don't know If it was a bad batch, or the excessive vibration is the problem!

If you need more light, try one of these.

3rd one down 80/100, best bulb I've used and for only $11.58. Lights up like daylight.

Been using tham a while now and so have the guys I ride with, no regrets getting one of these.
