Happy, I changed the OE DRL bulbs six months in so it's hard to remember how bright the high beams were. I'd say the Lictechs provide better illumination. I turned them on recently and was able to light up a house across the street from a friend's driveway. They are blinding, hence why I don't use them often.
BTW, the OE bulbs that were removed already had rust colored cloudy areas inside the bulb. The Litech bulbs are blue, and last time I checked, did not have the same problem.

Kitlz,
Your DRL looks good and I want to do the same. What is the size and website, please? Also, the light in the picture below is yellow in mine and I want it to be LED as well, did you change yours?
Thank you.

GoHuskers, my installer put in the bulbs for me. He happened to carry the Litech super white bulbs. The size is 9005. FYI, bulb information is in Specification section of the owner's manual, page 649 for me.
For the parking light, he switched them out to an LED bulb (W5W), nothing special. I think there's actually two bulbs under the LED headlights. Only the one to the left (pictured below) was changed I believe.

I have certainly posted the following message in the wrong area but is there somebody which can summarize all these things as follows?:
- To make things clear for everybody, would you be kind enough for all of us (a bit inexperienced in the field of "tuning" our nice cars) what led for what current lights:
- red led for rear positioning,
- white led for reverse motion and parking lights (as original are more "yellow-white" lights but not led)
- yellow/orange or which one for turning...
with type and power 1 or 2 or 3W, etc.) ,
- additinal daylight leds (front of the car like new model style now like Audi, BMW or MB... you have installed in your respective cars.
This would help a lot.
Many thanks in advance

I would make one correction to the bulb information. I found the front turning bulbs are 3457, not WY21W, on the LED headlights. I had purchased two pairs of the Philips Silver Visions based on what was in the manual. Wrong! So i had to get a pair of 3457 chrome bulbs from Stealth since Philips doesn't carry that size. They fit perfectly. Double check before ordering.
