LED Projector Bulbs in Fog Lights **Anyone**

Anyone have this setup?
I am finding lots of 9006/H4 LED Projector bulbs out there that are error free and fit in the stock housing/bulb socket.
I upgraded my current fogs to HID via TheRetrofitSource and I like it but it just does not throw light out there. It looks good but I also want that function of it increasing light on the road.
The LED projector bulbs look/appear to throw/reflect the light outwards unlike my HID Fog setup?

Any suggestions or pictures would be GREAT!

Projector bulb? I have used a 50 watt LED bulb with two large cree chips, one on each side. They were plug and play and without errors. Not as bright as an HID set-up, but brighter than stock and gives a nice appearance of HID lighting with no warm up time associated with xenons.

Nick just bought a set from Ijdmtoy.com got them in this morning planning on installing them and some new hids. From Retrofit source hopefully this weekend or next. You can check mine out before you buy yours.

Yeah..I have eh Retrofit Source HID bulbs for my headlights and a HID kit for my fogs. Love the headlight bulbs... The HID Fog Kit is good...but I htink because the housing is not projector it just throws light everywhere..not out in front of hte car as additional light to see by. I now have somehting out on the kit after only 6 months and I have to swap everyhting around to diagnose the issue...that is a pain. I would love some pictures and info on LED projectors for my 2005 E55 AMG/W211. I just want light out in front of the car that is usable.
