Is the backlight on these any better than the original ones? I'm assuming they use the same faint greenish light...

never had a green light on the original or this one. the background is dark until the middle button on the left is pressed. then it lights up white.

Hmm I have the same ones and they work perfect for me. It sounds like you may want to try to get your waranteed. When all the led's are lit these are super bright.

I agree the backlite is faint. It is not a problem for me but, I definitely agree it is not very bright.

They're not as bright as 60W - closer to 40W to my eyes. I view them more as an accent light or novelty toy.

Yes they are absolutely brighter! A much broader range and further down the road. The only negative is the color isn't as blue as I hoped.

that i do not know. nothing seems to flicker, or dim when i turn them on. i actually have them wired into old aftermarket fog light wires.

The lights do work very well with a Green Screen. That is what I use them for. I would recommend buying light bulbs that have a warmer tone to them because the light bulbs that are included can make you appear washed out.

No they are not as bright as a headlight. I also have had issues of half the leds burning out I would not recommend.

Nope...I got a pair and you can't even see them hardly. LED's don't project very well. I'd stick with CREE LED's or just go with original Halogens.

I read a review that said the same thing. I've had mine in for 6 months and no problems. They seem just as snug as the OEM ones I pulled out. IMHO the best out there unless you want fancy LED lighting. Also, I don't know why they say Xenon, mine came with ordinary type bulbs, I noticed they were considerably brighter but not sure if that is just because they are new vs the old "cloudy" ones.

Yeap. Keyboard backlight fully defeatable. I was a little concerned that the green accents would look silly in person but IMHO looks way better in real life than the pictures.

I dont seem to have that issue at all. Backlight is very even on light and dark backgrounds.

i havent had any problems with them. so im assuming that its not normal, if its just one id change it, but it sounds like your saying all are dimming out. May be an alternative issue, but it could very well be possible that its the cheap lights!?

they look exactly the same; all are from spec-d tuning, so i would say they are just different prices from the vendors. if you think these are cool without the LED's, go for it, cause i guarantee that within a few months all of the LED's will either be flickering or out altogether, and they are not directly replaceable.
