Default LED Headlight Bulbs

Has anyone tried any of these in their Wrangler? Would love to get Truck Lite ones but the fiancee is not keen on the cost. Is a No Error Load Resistor Wiring Harness Adapter needed?

Wish I could do LED Headlights...I love the look. Unfortunately Canadian winters would be annoying to deal with. Would be great if they made some type of heating element for them!

Led's don't put out heat like standard halogen bulbs so the snow doesn't melt and could create a visibility issue. Some people complain, others say it's fine. I've seen people in Alaska say it's fine and people in Texas complain.

Wow, that's interesting...and while driving in a snow storm they don't build up snow?
