LED Fog Lights
I'm looking to change my fog lamp bulbs to LED to get a whiter look to match the Bi Xenon headlamps, can anyone recommend a good manufacturer or a brand that you've had a good experience with.
There are alot of no brand Chinese bulbs about etc. thanks, |

I'd be surprised if you find any that are E-marked and road legal but that's another matter.

I've been thinking of going down the led route for fogs also,as hid bulb fitment there involves a bit modification of bulb holder plus hiding wires and igniter.
Looking on other forums mixed reviews. Am sure some one on here has some fitted who can recommend them ? |

I looked at LED fogs but couldn't get any bright enough without selling a kidney to pay for them.

Don't think I'd go down the HID route more hassle than it's worth, I just didn't want to order any old LED bulbs off eBay. Would prefer buying something more premium....

That looks smart. Which bulbs did you go for in the end?

These where the bulbs I went for, purely because I've read that COB style LEDs last longer.
