The new LS looked strange with yellowish fogs and the HID headlights, so I bought these for a super-reasonable price:

Do they actually project any light? I thought that the LED bulbs for the fogs were for looks only. Same with my LED back up bulbs, they're useless for emitting any light while backing up.

I am very interested in your reaponse on these. I was thinking LED would be a good alternative to HID. But I don't think they will have the ability to throw light very far. Roadfrog is right, might just be for the HID look.

I will compare the before & after beam patterns to see how they look. I use them mainly to fill in the darker pattern below the headlights and for visibility to other motorists.

Yeah I just got matching HID fog lights work much bettter for actually projecting light and looking nice.

roadfrog

Exactly. One day I'll get around to doing that. LED's "look" nice but do not provide the projection required....at least not those you can buy on Ebay, etc. New cars are coming out with LED headlamps etc, but they are a different animal from what you can buy online, especially when retrofitting to an older vehicle with a different system.

These look like they might bea viable option if you are looking for usable LED light. Its from a trusted manufacturer but unfortunately it seems like its too new to find any reviews on it. It essentially seems like the cheap ebay ones but who can know for sure.

300 bucks! Ouch

The LED 9006 fog bulbs I bought are "Gen 2", whatever that means. For $20/pair shipped, I figured I'd try them out.

roadfrog

Nothing to lose at that price. Curious to hear how they work out for ya.

I bought the LED linked by Tec80 and put them in today. Seems decent. Pics are with one LED and one stock to show contrast.

roadfrog

Again...looks great, but does it project any light? Looks like it does on the floor in the pic.

I'm interested to see the burn life. The ones I used in the nike lights are starting to flicker, I'm assumiing from heat buildup...

duckblue, you are faster than I am! They look awesome, same color temp as the HIDs. There is an aiming mechanism built into the back of the bezel, they might be able to be adjusted a bit.

Weird piece of advice that your picture reminded me of: If you have a Gordon Food Service nearby, go buy a 20lb bag of hardwood lump charcoal. You'll never go back to briquets! If no GFS, look for Royal Oak hardwood lump charcoal. Then get one of these, 2,439 people can't be wrong:

It projects a good bit on the floor, but probably cant compete with traditional bulbs. I just think it looks better for this color temp.

My pics are taken with a phone, and its sort of hard to judge since the looks vary greatly depending where you focus. First pic looks dim, but others look like it projects nicely.
