yeah, but the 6000k bulbs that i got from mobilehid are a bit more purpleish than I thought....so there's a slight color difference.

Parking lights http://www.v-leds.com/Shop/Control/P...d/0/SFV/32481#

DRL http://www.v-leds.com/Shop/Control/P...id/0/SFV/32481

Fog lights (HAWAII'S IS-F Fogs are H11) check your manual I heard its not the same in the Mainland http://www.amazon.com/XenTec-convers...6306536&sr=1-7

Low Beam (6000k D4S) http://www.mobilehid.com/cl.htm - His name is Clifford, although I'm not too satisfied with the purpleish (6000k = bluish WHITE)color, its better than yellowish stock OEM....

Thanks a lot!

I'll check them out.

Did you install them yourself? Or did you get it done somewhere? Any recommendations of where to get the bulbs installed in the SoCal area?
