For a Gen7 Celica using H7 low beam and 9005 high beam, I wasted lots of time and money tested many LED bulbs, some very expensive, none would fit securely and could focus a solid beam in front of the car.



Bought this Mini7 for $6.86 from Walmart. The bulb fits perfectly in the H7 socket . It uses a CREE XHP50 LED element with the dome lens and actually focuses a solid bright beam with the DOT cut off on top, only 4000 Lumens but still far brighter than Halogen. Adjusted the dial CCW to raise the beam to level.

The same bulb is also made with the connector for 9005 high beam. Works very well btht low and high beam. I am mad at the other LED bulb manufacturers for all their false advertisements.

CAPTAINSOLO, wonder if you could clarify.

On 9/21/21, you said here, "It... actually focuses a solid bright beam with the DOT cut off on top".

On 6/15/22, you said on the Walmart page, "Light is not focused, very dim and scattered in the wrong direction", with a one star review.

Thanks.
