Thanks steve jones
DRL = Day Time Running Light
Halogen Bulb Advantages = Your DRL is 30% output of what your high beam is
LED Bulb - Looks 10x Better, but your high beams are not as strong.
As for fogs, HID Bulbs are alot brighter than the Halogen. If you go HID, please refer to this chart so you can select the color you want. 6000k being bright white

bascially, there is no color choice when your geting your low HID. only way is to buy how many 1000 Ks according to the chart. Am i geting this correct?
BTW, Vled, Garax or Xenon? does it matter which HID brand to choose from, or fawk it, HID is HID. just install it and ride? =P

Depends on who you ask. You will find members on this board that will tell you that all HID kits are manufactured to the same standards. However, you will also find members on this board that have gone the cheap route and wished that they had not due to failing components and interference with vehicle's components. I can't speak on behalf of any of the other brands that you have mentioned. All I can do is tell you that we have been selling quality HID kits on this board since 2004. Given that we are still a supporting vendor on the forum you can be assure that we offer quality products and stand behind them should you require any sort of after sales service/support.

What do you guys think of Putco Super white halogen bulbs, for my DRL, City Lights and Fogs? I have Factory 4300k HID's and I think they're perfect. I'm not a fan of HID fogs because to me, it screams too much. Same thing with LED's for DRLS and City lights except you lose function. My main concern is how unmatched the factory bulbs look, while not losing too much function.

Trust me, I'm not feeling them either...I've actually already taken them out and am waiting for V-leds to restock their 6000k blue bulbs so that my lights will actually match. I've been waiting over a month! They need to step up their game or a lot of people are going to be unhappy.

Steve, do the fog lights in the first picture look like they are 6000k? I asked them over there at V-leds and they insured that their 6000k blue is in fact a pure 6000k. I dont know what the purple low beams were, but that's why I took them out and went back to stock for the moment.

DRL HIDs
All these look amazing. Thinking of doing the switch to 6k on all bulbs, one question that has not been answered yet is what does a 6k bulb look like running. I do know the DRL is 30% of the highbeam so would the light be blue or yellow. Obviously when the high beams are switched on it will be nice and blue but when it's only running at 30% how will just that bulb look. Thanks in advance.
