Joel, no problem. Canadians are some of my best customers!
The LED headlights replace the outer light bulb so they do high and low
outer, but the inner I am still working on. I think the biggest problem
with finding some inner ones that will work would be the fact that the
bulbs have a large butt on them to allow for the heat sink. The inner
light covers the entire rear of the bulb to seal up the housing. So
finding something that will fit inside the housing and work may be
impossible. You can't just leave the rear cover off as this would allow
moisture inside the housing and goof everything up.
The bulbs are 6000k color temperature (white), and 4000k lumens per bulb.
I haven't gotten an amp draw number on them yet but it is ALOT less than
stock so it should keep your wiring and switch from needing relays or
melting down in the future.
