    I have been out of the loop on the latest and greatest of LED bulbs.

    I'm giving my buddy a pair of my old PIAA offroad lights for his golf cart which came with 120W H3 incandescent bulbs.

    What are the good bulbs to get nowadays off Amazon?

    We don't afaik have any LED bulb testing for H1/H2/H3 type led retrofit bulbs, but if they're anything like the market for h11/h9/H4 types, they're not going to be great. I'd hit up Daniel Stern at danielsternlighting.com about what bulbs would work best with your lamps. Some work well with high wattage bulbs, some, with smaller optics, will work better with high performance standard wattage H3's. Flösser and Narva still have some decent offerings.

    Edit- now I see you've got some pics, and I also skipped over the "for his golf cart" part. Still not sure of what LED offerings there are, but assuming he is just looking for light, probably anything that reasonably fits in the housing will work as some sort of flood.
