Was not the cheapest, but had a lot of previous sales
I doubt its actually a CREE LED, but who knows.

You can buy the same product for $20 with Free Delivery on eBay.
Thank you for the "Cold Bulb Check" tip.

UPDATE: Fitted the above.

1. They are not as bright as i thought they would be
(probably as bright as OEM, just a different temp range)
2. They flash when you first turned on
(so they need coding to turn off "Cold Check")
3. Because of their construction, it is VERY hard to twist-lock them in position
(I'd buy some with a hex construction next time)
4. They run hot, so be careful how and where you mounted the LED driver.
