What color?

[tx07tahoe]

I have been thinking about putting LED bulbs in the DRL's. Right now I have the Silverstars with the amber color. I have been told that its hard to see the turn signals when the DRL's are on and want a change.

So what color should I go with?

Or should I try something different or keep them and change the signals?


FYI my tahoe is Silver Birch Metallic and I have 6k HID's in the Low's and Fog's.

Here is a link.

If I ever go that route, it would be white. Blue or red would get me pulled over. I also thought about purple like Modded did, it looks sick.

Whatever you decide, post pics when you get it.

Maybe I should go with white cause the cops around here get bored alot.

I used the 3157_27_MSMT_W for the DRL's and 3157_20_A for parking light/turn signals. I really like the LED's in the DRL's. The turn/park LED isn't as bright for parking lights but is fine for turn signals. I believe it's more a function of the small reflector area because the 3157_20_R's for the rear signals are really bright. Bad thing is pulling the whole headlight to get to the wiring to add the load resistors. No problem on the rear, but I took the whole bumper cover off to pull the headlights up front and mounted the resistors to the core support on the mounting plates they also sell. I'm now 100% LED, inside and out.

Can you post up some pics please?

I just got home. I'll get some pics tomorrow. What do you want to see, inside, outside, front, rear?

 

[Fast55]

Here are the front and rear LED's.

Cool thanks

Fast55 that looks good. Are the rear LED bulbs in the brake lights much brighter that stock?

 

[Fast55]

Definitely brighter. Not like the G4's, but noticeably brighter than stock bulbs. You need 2 pairs, so it's about $100, but that's still half the cost of the G4's. The reverse lights are really bright. The only thing I think is a waste is the 194 LED's in the side markers. You can't really tell much difference from a stock bulb. I didn't put them in the puddle lights because mine are switched off (I think approach lighting is the setting in the DIC) because of my HID's.
