2013 Edge Headlights Are Terrible


Recommended Posts

I got the Vleds LMZ LED system in place in the 2013 Edge. I ordered the 9006 45 watt, in 5k. We now have light and they are definitely an improvement. I do notice very slight flickering while stopped but its not all the time. Connections are good, and I thought maybe it was attributed to the auto lights or maybe even a voltage fluctuation due to alternator cycling but it does it regardless of how I have lights switched and climate system set to not cycle alternator. I plan on calling Vleds tomorrow and asking if they have any idea what it may be. Overall we are happy and its nice to be able to see. I did cut a round hole in the back of the headlight caps the same size of the light to allow cooling from the internal fans in the lights.

So far the lights are just awesome. I have not noticed the flickering since the first night but have not really parked and looked for it. I didn't document or pic the install as its very basic. She and the car are in southern cal right now but when she gets back I will see if the flickering persists. When I called Vleds about this they said if it continued, an inline resister may cure that. Stay tuned
