let's revive this thread in the hope that some bulb experts will jump in....I've been unhappy with my high-beams, pkg/"city" lights and fogs since installing my 6000k projectors, so I'm about to order Sylvania H7 SU BP TWIN SilverStar Ultra for high-beam ($29.98/pair on Amazon) and considering Sylvania H11 ST BP TWIN SilverStar ($24.98/pair on Amazon) for fogs....or do I need Sylvania H11 SU SilverStar ULTRA ($37.57/pair) for fogs to match the whiteness?? [194 Wedge LEDs from forum sponsor AZN Optics seem to be the best choice for pkg/"city" lights.]

what you call daytime running lights is likely what I call parking lights and others call city lights, the orange-ish ones in this pic:

My SA says CLK350 fogs are H11, which might be same as 9006 (again, I'm hoping the gurus will join us.....)

H11 and 9006 are complete different. According to my specs, your fogs will either be H7 or H11 depending on package. It should be in your owner's manual what the correct replacement bulb is.
As for what type of light you should get, if you're going for whitest of white, nothing will beat HID, but you'll be paying more and have slightly more involved installation. If you just want whiter halogen bulb swap, the one that I've seen that came closest to sniffing HID temp ranges are Philips Diamond Visions. Hope that helps
