Then how do you get your Fog's on at the same time as your DRL's? I put in some LED's for my DRL's and lost the Fog's when i turn on my high beams. The DRL's turn off when the low beams/fog's are on....

^ Those aren't my fogs. They are a custom LED strip controlled by remote control. Read this for more info: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...ing-video.html

You can also do the standalone fog mod: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...ication-8.html

^ This.

Your LED DRLs shouldn't flicker either assuming you properly installed a module and/or relay harness.

Thanks Gustavo250 and brociouz. Now I know why brociouz is the go to guy when it comes to lighting Would the V-LEDS 5K WHITE 194 13 LED LIGHT BULBS (http://www.v-leds.com/Interior-LED/G...04828-1-2.html) for parking lights be a good match with non HID low's?

^ It would be a pretty good match, but http://www.v-leds.com/Exterior-LED/C...85865-1-2.html might be even better. It's a litter dimmer, so it'll blend better.

Hmm, anybody got a shot of 5k compared to 6k? I don't want too much blue but its hard to tell unless the pics are side by side of the same fixture/housing.

Look at your at the LED reading lights by your front dome light. Those are about 5000K. 6000K has a small hint of blue in it.

Yes, those are the new ones. They still require a module (to prevent flickering, a module is always needed) but it is plug and play and the actual module is small enough to fit behind the moisture shield. No drilling, no relay harness to the battery.
