Nope, you can get LED replacements for only 79¢ each.
However youll still have to address the dimmer problem.
At the very least youll have to jump the rheostat so you can light the LEDs fully.

Re: headlight switch
yes LED's are pretty expensive. I am redoing my interior dash lights with LED's also and a pack of two at pep boys is like 7.99. what NINA is probably talking about are replacement factory lights, but LED's are costly but they look great. I personally have blue and I love them

Re: headlight switch
mmm ok. ill prolly just get new replacement lights, but i think my dimmer might be bad as well, they light up only sometimes when i turn the ****.
