Default Best LED for Fogs

What is the best 9006 LED bulb that will work best in our fog lights in regards to brightness and no glare? I see many options from TRS and Xenon Depot.

Per Shibumi's advice, I purchased 5th gen Rolinger LED's, from Amazon.
Even as fogs, they light up the street ahead of me, casting a bright, wide beam of light.
Absolutely love'em!

Can you double check your post? I can't find anything by the name of Rollinger on Amazon

My mistake, as I incorrectly spelled the brand name of the product.
I should have done this/included this in my initial post: the actual direct link to the product.
My apologies for all of the inconvenience.
If you have any questions about them, feel free to ask, I'll help the best I can!

KKRlexus:

sorry for the delay, will try to post this evening or tomorrow morning.
However, if you don't want to wait, head over to either Shibumi1's or CJITTYS build thread, and they have photos there of their fogs.

teedub21:

Nothing needed of the sort!
It takes longer to unscrew and fold back the wheel liner to get to the fog bulb, thank the actual switch out. Very easy, very straight forward.

Can anyone post more comparison pics of LED vs HID in the fogs? My understanding, according to other threads, is that the HID's still output more foreground lighting but im also curious about glare.

i would recommend HIDs. I had really nice led fogs in my Ls430 - they looked really bright but from an out put function wise ok. something similair to them http://store.ijdmtoy.com/H11-9005-90...0w-cob-fog.htm
The hids are a much better option went with xenon depot. The hids and and headlight both pretty much match. some roads to home are in a heavy wooded area and i appreciate the extra help with the HID fogs.
