Has anyone here had any trouble with using retrofit LED bulbs in their cars? I know I jumped on the bandwagon with both feet, but I was watching this video yesterday and it said the non-canbus type bulbs can overheat with long term use and fail. It was just a guy with a clickbait video on youtube, but it still got me to thinking. I put a lot of eggs in that basket, so I thought I'd see what others' experiences are. I haven't driven mine enough to be able to really say one way or the other. I never gave much thought to the heat thing since LED bulbs don't produce heat from the light like incandescent bulbs do.
I've seen a few cases of people putting cheap LED HEADlights on their cars and melting their housings, but I guess I think of headlights as a whole different animal. I have regular halogen 9007 bulb headlights at this point just because decent LED headlights seem to be prohibitively expensive.
Anyway, thoughts?
