I just went and had a look at mine, i did them North/ South cant remember why i did it that way, im sure that's what was recommended by them.
I fitted mine East/West horizontal as per instructions although not sure what difference it makes?????

Has anyone tried them fitted both ways to see what differences it makes. Dip beams often look brighter at the top of the reflector as lights is reflected down to the road. So the LED horizontal (emitters facing up and down) probably names most sense for dip beam. Main beam might not care either way.
Got these in May http://www.cyclopsadventuresports.com/R1200GS-LT-and-RT-LED-Headlight-Bulb-Kit-8000-lumen_p_147.html
As bright as the photo's no canbus problems bit of a sod to fit but you might have to adjust the dip as according to instructions the cut off can be a bit high,
but thoroughly tested at night no oncoming motorists flashing, just passed an MOT two weeks ago no problems.
They are reassuringly expensive though

Look again the photo is the wrong way round in his post,
The instructions on mine that I fitted to my tl said to fit east west, mine are H4 so had to be fitted north south so that the lights worked properly, the H4 has an led on the top for low beam and 2 on the bottom for hi beam, there's no way they would work properly if fitted as the instructions said.
That looks like north south to me

I might be the crash test dummy for these. They don't look any bulkier than the Cyclops and if I'm wrong it's only a few quid.
On the off chance.........has anyone already tried??

Went out to try the LED dip beam last weekend - very bright but also lit up the faces of drivers of oncoming cars, just when they were about 3m in front of the bike. So there was clearly intense light being spilled to the offside, albeit only at close quarters. I never got flashed though.
So I've now rotated the LED so the chips are north/south. When it gets above freezing, I'll try it & report.

How did you get on with these? Can I come around to see them?
Hi, I didn't go for the H7 bit I did put their H11 in my spots.
We go out most Sunday mornings, meeting in the Crossings Maxol.......... you're more than welcome to pop over.
