FOG LIGHTS AND DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS
I am looking to get bulbs to match my stock xenon headlights. I want to get the daytime running lamps, and the fog lights so that they all match and look clean...
Can anyone point me in the right direction???
Thanks

I don't like the PIAA's for the daytime running lamp because when they are off you get a bluish glare in the light housing. Looks cheap in my opinion. I went with chrome-painted bulbs that are white when lit up and look oem when not. http://www.automotivelightingusa.com...roducts_id=528
For the fogs, I went with a a 5000k kit and it matches the stock xenons great. I got the fogs from James at ACG (877-422-4736). They were about $130 shipped. He was very knowledgeable and helpful.

Here are some very quick pics I just ended up takin real quick for ya. Car is a lil dirty from not being able to wash cause of the rain so excuse the dirt... 
EDIT....I was lookin at the pics again and the DRL look very "yellow" in the pics. I can assure you that they are very much indeed white...

Go to AZN OPTICS (he's a sponser on this board) The LED's are perfect. I installed other led's in the past and they blinked and so on, so I installed some pia bulbs untill now.
The new LED's from AZN should be standard on the car. No codes, no blinking, and the color is on the money. I went with the 5000k bulbs and I think they match the HID headlights and fog lights perfect ( I have HID's in the fogs also)
Good luck
