Anyone fitted them? worth the money?

I was thinking of changing my standard lights for these. and loosinging the light bar on the roof.
Any thoughts on this?
 
I had been looking at the various makes of LED headlights for some time and finally took the plunge last year, I went for Nolden LED's.
There are several different makes of road-legal LED headlights so you should do your homework before spending your cash, the good news is that they really are coming down in price now you should now be able to do it for about £500.

My existing lights were already very good, I had done the re-wiring years ago and along with good reflectors and Osram Night-Breaker bulbs they were as good as you can get while staying conventional.
I discounted the other makes for one reason or another and narrowed it down to the JWS or Nodens. As far as I could tell the Noldens were brighter and while the JWS had a lifetime warranty, it was not uncommon for it to be put to good use for corrosion, condensation issues etc. In the end I went for the Noldens, they were the most expensive but in side by side tests they seemed to come out on top.

Were they worth it, probably not but it depends on what you are happy to pay?
As I said before, my lights were already very good and while there is no getting away from the fact that Dipped is better than before, High is a real let-down and the long-range stuff is still done by my (excellent) Hella spot's.
 
Any chance you could do a comparison between your nolden lights and a vehicle with ordinary wipac halogens? Maybe a picture or measure the distance of the beam range of the high and dipped beams.

When you say your high beam is a real let down what do you mean, is it worse than standard?
 
I would say that the Nolden high-beam is little better than my existing high-beam. Don't forget, my lights were already better than most so if you were to compare the Nolden's to a vehicle with average lights then of course it would be better.
No chance of a comparison I'm afraid.
