For anyone who is on the fence about where to get LEDs from.... GO WITH VLED. HOLY CRAP THESE ARE BRIGHT!!!!!!

Ive had the blue VLED bulbs and a LED kit from Precision LED. These 6K VLED bulbs are the best IMO.

The following pics are with my garage closed and lights on

Those blue LEDs do look very cool but get annoying after a few days

Check out Precision LED. I had their cool white LED kit and its brighter than the stock lights, but not as bright as the VLEDs.
