Hey Larry, never know till you try! Thanks for the feedback.
Good info. Thanks !
Thank you!
Larry, bulbs don’t “know” anything.. they are inanimate objects, and please stop yelling at the camera.. its annoying.
Dan – I think someone says that in the video? Larry asked the question Bob is the one with the loud voice.
WHY ARE YOU YELLING? ( You no longer need to apply for the Incredible Hulk acting position ) If Larry doesn’t know what bulbs fit in what vehicle, then Larry should go back to his tricycle and girlie streamers! We are Men aren’t we? we talk H1, H3, H4 type globes, We talk HID and LED and we “Don’t ” touch normal globes with our fingers do we now? Come on FMH.. I’ve just fitted Harley Day Lights to my first hog, get with the times!
