    9006 bulb in low beam socket (h11)?

    NO. H11 socket (hole) is too small for HB4(9006) bulb base. H11 is similar to H8/H9; 9006 socket 'does' fits H10 bulb for testing purpose.

    LED Puddle lamps

    I've tested some of the T10/194/168 bulbs on a Lexus light. The cheap 5050 has 6K-ish white while the new 5630 LED type was brighter but has a purple-ish hue. The single-forward facing bulb has the best correct output for puddle-light usage; those Philips/Oram are expensive because they produce...

    Projector Fogs...?

    about the SUV retrofit lights or LED projector foglights? There are those Cree+Osram LED H11 bulbs now available. But for a 'sharp' looking output, retrofitting custom LED is the way to go. ;)

    I'm thinking the same thing. Let see if the housing is easy to work with and what LEDs they use. The spoiler by itself should be worth something :)
