I've installed H7 LEDs in other cars and they made a helluva difference!
I'm sorry, I misspoke. I've always thought they were "ballasts", but apparently they are called "drivers". It's a little black box that must be wired in between the stock headlight plug and the LED bulb (it's made to just plug and play). I double back taped them to the headlight bucket, behind the reflector.
