I saw some of the reviews regarding the installation of the LED bulbs not fitting easily. NOT TRUE
I have a 2007 Chevy Surburban LTZ with factory fog lights. One of the fog light bulbs (5202) burned out so I wanted to get either LED or Zenon replacements. I ended up going for the LED lights which don't require any rewiring or addition of a ballast. I saw some of the reviews regarding the installation of the LED bulbs not fitting easily. NOT TRUE. These bulbs fit exactly and easily after one modification. The new o-ring seal on the new bulb needed a little o-ring lube to get it to fully seat in the holder. ( No big deal )Also, Much easier to turn your wheel fully in and remove the (2) 9/32" screws and the (2) push pins from the outer wheel well, just open it a little and put your hand in to push the 2 retainer clips (top & bottom) then remove bulb assy. Really tough from underneath.The actual light output is pure white as if Zenons. Matches my Zenon headlights beautifully and extremely bright. Love Them.

2009 Suburban LTZ
Just received these in the mail today and just installed them just now. They are actually pretty bright and almost match my hids exactly. These are a pure white color and they fit the foglights perfectly. They're on my '09 Suburban LTZ.Great price! I will do a follow up review later on, I have a 1200 mile trip this weekend so I'll see how they are on the road.I would definitely recommend these to anyone who have the small GM circular foglights that are worried about getting them melted with HID's and wants to go the LED route.March 14, 2015 update.I still use them at every time at night. Still work just fine and still matches my HID's perfectly. To be honest, I wouldn't use them by themselves. They aren't that bright, but still very bright for what they are. The factory foglights that come with 2007+ Tahoe and Suburban are s*** anyways because they're so small you have to watch your wattage anyways if you're taking the hid route. LED are probably your best bet. Unless if you upgraded your foglights for something totally different.

Install with care
Just got these fog lights installed and omg they're bright as hell. But be warned... install with care. The clips that keep the light attached to the housing are weaker than the oem lights. They work wonderfully but just take a little more care when installing. I broke a clip when installing mine and emailed the supplier to notify them hoping they will send a replacement. The lights themselves do seem very high quality and are very bright. I will give a 5 star review and update when I hear from the supplierUpdate on my review. JDM immediately sent me a replacement bulb. Couldn't be happier with the supplier and how fast they worked to solve the issue. These fog lights are bright af and couldn't be happier.

Brighter white light. Good price. I had some problems during installation. All-in-all I recommend these bulbs.
The light from the bulb is very white and provides more "local" light, but doesn't project forward as well as I'd hoped. Still a vast improvement over the stock bulbs. My 2007 model Suburban uses the "Type 1" bulbs. These JDM ASTAR bulbs are about the same price as the replacement originals.Difficulties encountered during installation is the reason I deducted one star. The plastic base of the JDM ASTAR bulb is more flexible than the original bulb's base. The spring-loaded part that is supposed to latch the bulb into place was difficult to engage into the socket. Also, the bulb has an O-ring to seal water out of the housing once installed. This made it impossible for me to seat the bulb from under the truck with the light housing still in place. The housing had to be detached from the truck (fairly easy to do) so I could wrestle with getting the new bulb inserted into the old housing. (My truck is a 2007 model) I finally used a dab of liquid detergent to lubricate the O-ring and was able to get the bulb seated. What should have been a 10 minute project stretched to almost an hour of futzing around getting the catches engaged and getting the bulbs seated.

Bright, Bright, Bright. Very cost effective upgrade.
- Bought these to replace the stock H16 bulbs in my '12 GMC Sierra Denali. They are nice and bright, easily enhance my field of vision when driving at night. They feel like they are high quality but are very affordable.- The connectors match the stock in style, the go in a little snug because of the rubber moisture seal, but that's solvable, I used a light smudge of grease on the moisture gasket to help them go in. Comes back out easy enough but in order to prevent and damage I decided to grease the rubber seal.- Took it out for a drive this evening, a very noticeable difference in total light on the road. I would buy them again. Going to come back in a month and do an update see, how they fare with the Humidity and Rain of this very rough summer.

Seem bright, but doubt I would buy again.
These bulbs seem very bright looking at them in the day time, I have not yet had a chance to try them at night yet. They seem to have a decent (solid) construction, but there are 3 issues that I had with installing them:1: The 2 pins were not properly positioned. On both bulbs I had to move both pins multiple times in order to install the mating connector2: The locking tab for the connector is spaced differently than the OEM Philips bulbs, it was very difficult to get the mating connector to actually "lock" on to the bulb. One bulb required a pliers to actually lock, which has a high chance of damaging either bulb or the connector.3: The bulb itself was extremely difficult to lock into the fog light housings, where as the OEM Philips clipped in very easily, these required a lot of force to actually lock in place.To find out if you'll have issues 1 and 2 make sure to try plugging the connector into the bulb before installing it in the housing.All in all, I'm not sure I would order them again. They seem very bright, but as hard as they were to install I feel lucky I didn't break anything.
