The lenses are as clear as new. I guess it's an addiction to "upgrading" that we all seem to have at some point. I just liked the idea of LED lighting.
You want to talk about dramatic improvement? Try going from old school tungsten sealed beams on a 1972 Pontiac to halogens. Now, THAT was dramatic. Most lighting on cars these days isn't bad at all.
Change H11 to H9 (with minor modification) will improve the light output by more than 50%. Since you have projector housing, H9 in place of H11 will not produce more glare.
