I think it said regular Halogen bulb is 900 lumen right? Pop one of the Halogen into the other DRL. Cover up the Halogen side and you see a huge light drop, cover the LED side and you see not much change.
I still use my high beam as high beam so I will not touch that bulb.
I agree the LED does look great, which is why I change the little light in the DRL with LED. Thought mine is the cheaper cheap kind..... think I paid like $14 for both. Again, just for look. Here it is comparing with the oem yellow bulb. And I think at this time I had the 5000K HID in my low beam.

Let me know if you're interested in posting up some pics =) I would be more than happy to get you a discounted price on a set of 30W H11 5000k LED fogs. Actually, do you guys need an H11 bulb or a 9006?

Luke27617: Thanks =) We have them available in 9006 as well:

energie8: Be careful with 50W HID kits. Vendors often use 50W ballasts with 35W bulbs meaning that they overdrive the HID bulb and so it burns hotter and fails quicker.
I would suggest looking at the 35W Xtreme HID kit as it has low draw ballasts which work properly if your vehicle has auto lights (assuming your leave your fogs on all the time).
