Good LED DRLS?

Anyone know of any good LED DRLS? I bought some ones from Concept-Three-LEDS and got crappy bulbs that didn't work and dont wanna get ripped off again so I was wondering if anyone else had bought any from somewhere else? I bought my HIDS from K1_ZN6 @ HID POWERHOUSE and they were really good all around but was just checkingy options.

Wow. Insightful post. I'm not gonna be a jerk and say use the search or comment on you slandering Concept-Three-LEDS, so I'm just gonna answer your question. I wish more people would just answer the question if someone's looking for help when they know the answer.

Got my HID's from HID Powerhouse as well and would recommend him for LED DRL's as well.

Whatever you do [ame="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00AWIEIIK/ref=oh_details_o06_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1"]DON"T BUY THESE[/ame].

I had one separate and fall into the headlight with no way to get it out. I had to bake and split the headlight, i took the opportunity to paint the headlight, but it was still a huge PITA.

I'll post pics if you want, i'm just being lazy.

Those look sexy! They split in two ? :/

Anyone know where to get DRL that have a bit more hint of blue than 6000k?

I second this. It doesn't matter what LED DRL you get. As long as you get an LED DRL, you WILL lose your high beams. I got mine from HID powerhouse and they look good, but I am considering real bulbs.

This is the one and only reason I haven't done LED DRL's. I now have LED lights for everything, except the DRL. Oh well, I would rather see better at night than have the car look better during the day.

Yesterday I saw a white GT spec in Melbourne and it had LEDs there too but it seemed like a replacement globe or something like that.

I'd be happy with that
