Default Replacing ANZO Headlight LEDS

I'm sorry if this was covered but every search I used came up with 200+ topics... My Anzo LED's went out after about 2 months (as expected) and I am going to open them up and want to solder in new LEDs.

1. Does anyone know who would sell them or what kind I would need? Answered, thanks!

2. In the mean time I am putting BlueBat's eyelids over them, can those go in the oven when I bake them open?

3. Also, I have opened the lights a few times before and epoxied them closed last time. What's the best way to get them apart again after applying epoxy to them? It's not just the sealant that came with them, it's both that and the epoxy.

Thanks in advance,

Jeff

I believe they're superflux LEDs, I could be wrong.

You're better off getting rid of those sad excuse for headlights.

OK when you say they are superflux is there a special brand that i should get that will last longer than the ones preinstalled or is there only one brand? I want to do this once and not have to do it again. SO if I can't replace them with a better quality LED, I might not even attempt to do it.

I figured that out that it's a type of LED and I HAVE googled but I don't know what brand is good. There are many superflex LED's but I was wondering if someone had exerience with a certain kind that showed to be a higher quality than others... Sorry.

Hey thanks CHP..... I'll get them from there but it looks like a 4 week wait for the white ones.. ugh.. that's a long wait. As for my other questions - how would I bake open these lights after I epoxied them shut? I already opened them twice and this will be the third and finaly time. But there was a water leak last time so I had to epoxy them shut.
