Question FSport LED Driving light strips ???

Has anyone tried/done/thought of/ etc changing the DRL LED strip on the bottom of the headlamp assembly?
I have changed all the lights on the front of the car over to the Oracle HID 10k bulbs, even got a 10k OEM replacement bulb. Used their conversion kits for the high beams and fog lights and had them send me a set of Halo rings to fit around my projector lenses which glow red. Changed all of the interior lights to Oracle LEDs which are also red.
Besides the point... anyone had any luck in making the OEM LED strips brighter... different color light like 8k or something like this?? Or just plain brighter in general?? If so what is the replacement LED or bulb used?
Any suggestions welcomed

I think it's bright enough the way it is. I don't think you can replace the LEDs on it, they are soldered in but that's not the point. You're going to have to find out the specs of the LEDs and make sure it's as bright and works on the same power current or the LEDs will burn out right away. One thing you can do is buy an LED strip and fit it inside where the LED strip is and disable the stock one.

Isn't there a difference between 50% brightness to 100%. Brightness that the op can do that others have done? That may help your look. Also the 12' and up are brighter than 11'.
