This is just hearsay I don't know in personal experience, but how hot do those get to the touch. I've heard The lED headlight don't melt snow good and on long trips in snow may cause issues. Again I've only heard that just curious how true it is. I know though LEDs on general don't get that hot

Looks bada$$. I think I was looking at those. Can't remember the site anymore but to get the leds to work do you have to wire to the fog lghts or what? Was wonderng about that. And put int red LED's in the floor area. Doesn't help any because my dome lights on but had nothing else to put them in lol still looks cool
