    I saw several LED headlight topics here but didn't find any help from those.

    I recently bought a pair of LED headlights - without LED computers (ballasts). However, the seller is working for Toyota and he managed to get me a pair of Auris computers. However, they seem to be missing one socket since there's a pair of wires just hanging. Does anyone have any photos about their ballasts so that I could see if those both are connected?

    It also seems that if I cannot use these I may need to go and buy a pair of computers for Prius from Toyota.

    Any assistance with this? Thanks! 10659171_1133068720076774_1605700877674224903_n[1].jpg

    Uh.. Think I got it now. The ballast is different in Prius and it has 2 connectors :(

    Let's continue chatting by myself... I just ordered 2 LED computers from Sweden.

    Costs so far:
    LED headlights: 50€
    LED computers: 180€
    Total: 230€ --> ~$258.

    Computers just arrived... Now I'm only lacking those H11 sockets.

    Project is finished and lights are working. The amount of light is unbelievable! Sorry for the crappy mobile phone photo, need to wait for the dark and get you some better photos.

    Looks great! Where did you buy them from? When I was searching for these, I couldn't find them new.

    That's something I may need to consider for the long beam. Need to check if those are available in my country.

    Does your car have the ride-level sensor at the rear axle? Have you added it? (Does Finland require the lights to self-level?)

    Factory LED's cannot be changed as far as I know.

    Yes, it's required but I did not find it anywhere so it's not installed. I'm just hoping for the best when I have the next inspection... I'm pretty sure the inspector will not even ask for that.
