Default Decided to go with the LED parking lights.... opinions welcomed.

Fortunately, the color temperature of the 12000k fogs almost matches the new LED parking lights that I just installed.

But the downside, the lowbeam is too yellowish IMHO.

Might have to splash out on a set of 12000k D4S bulbs....

According to Lexus Thailand, the so called "OPTIMUM" color temperature for pure functionality is 4300K. Which is the standard D4S bulb. The yellow fogs I used to have worked well during the foggy mornings. But these 12000k bulbs have an advantage on tarmac surfaces.
