Definitely not trying to make it look like HIDs. It's purely functionality. Right now I can't tell if the fogs are on or off. And this past weekend, I hit a huge pothole that flat my front driver-side tire.

I ordered them today and so I'll post pics when I get them and if they don't work, then I'll scrap them and get the HIDs.

Nice post but looking at the DRL pics at night, do they produce enough light? Looking at the ground it appears that there is very little illumination even right in front of the vehicle... What is the light output of those things?
