**EDIT 11/20/14** THIS LINK/BULB NUMBER APPLIES ONLY TO 2015 EARLY MODELS. IT APPEARS THAT ALL 2015i MODELS HAVE CHANGED BULBS. THE 2015i USES THIS BULB: http://www.amazon.com/PSX26W-Power-...White+6+LED+Fog+Light+Foglight+Bulb+for+Car**

____________________________________________________________________

I haven't seen anyone point out the fact that we can operate our fog lights with the parking lights on... I might have missed it but I just figured it out last week.

I just can't stand the dinosaur HALOGEN fog lights with our nice fancy HID/LED headlights. I've seen a few people that have went with the VLEDS but I am a huge Amazon supporter due to their Prime shipping and no questions asked return policy.

I went with the Putco Optic 360 High Power LED fog lights. http://www.amazon.com/Putco-250001W...UTF8&qid=1403055966&sr=8-2&keywords=putco+h16

They are probably a minimum of twice as bright as the OE dino-bulbs and a perfect match to the LED parking lights.

Also rocking Sylvania / Osram 194 LED license plate lights. If they would only make 912/921 bulbs I would change out my backup lights too. Hard to beat the Osram quality.

See before and after pics on fogs:

Looks good.


I changed your thread name from retrofit to replacement. A retrofit is when you disassemble your housing and fit in a replacement after (retro) the housings were made. All you did was replace a bulb

No knocking you or anything, just don't want others to get there hopes up with some type of real retrofit

:Handshake:

Thanks... didn't even think about that one! I'd be all for taking those bad boys apart and popping some projectors in there but I don't think we have the space for that one. This was my first experience with PNP LED bulbs and I am quite pleased.

Looks like they match pretty well. I like the yukon drl's much better than the tahoes. (tahoe ones look like a after thought to me)

Looks good! Are the Denali headlights bi-xenon? Or is it only xenon for low beams and halogen for high beams?

I think for $110 and me only using my high beams once a year isn't worth it. How often do you use yours?

Not much more than that. Buy hey, that's only 1 tank of gas and think of how cool they'll look.... :hmmm2: lol

that is awesome. I need to get my hands on a set of Yukon heads and fogs. these 2015's are so new that I can't even order parts yet. Dealership didn't understand why I wanted to order the foglight housings. Parts guy just couldn't get onboard with the idea

No but I see why you ask. That one picture is deceiving. I actually have a lot of room. I can even fit my Raptor (extremely wide) in without folding the mirrors on it.

Nice good to know. I asked because your garage width looks about the same as ours.. Our current truck fits well without folding either so i don't see us having an issue with the Yukon.

Off topic but....Did you ever have any luck getting your order going? Still with Laura?

So when you ordered from Amazon, do they come as a pair or do you have to order (2) two ?

How does the beam look at night (on the road) from the drivers POV ?

Thanks,
Steve

They do come as a pair. Just order Qty 1. The beam is basically the same as it was - just 2 or 3 times brighter. All of the illumination is down low.

I just ordered a pair of the Philips 921 LED bulbs for my backup lights today as well. I'll post up how they look after I get them installed. The all-LED look is much cleaner IMO.

Good looking lights....I changed all mine out with VLEDs....VLEDs.com makes some BRIGHT, quality bulbs as well.... Definitely need to switch out those Halogen lights which ever way you decide to go

Been looking for some quality LED reverse lights. I had no idea Philips actually started making legitimate LED lights. They offer the 921 bulb in 6000K. I don't care if it isn't any brighter than the OE 921 reverse lights - I just don't want to replace them with anything that would be dimmer. They appear to have good reviews.

I have a pair coming that are due in tomorrow. I will post up pics of them when I get them installed.
