    Haha, yea I did that in my dakota before my taco. I love the light output of the morimoto fogs, but the color is definitely closer to 4600k

    Yup, I visited them when I was in Atlanta (absolutely bad ass place to check out fyi) and they informed me the newest generation is closer to 5500k. So who knows

    Well I got a few pics with the iPhone. It was foggy as shit out though, but the picture showing the wall may be useful. I honestly haven't paid much attention to the colour of the Philips VS the XB LEDs, but they aren't a perfect match. They are (supposedly) 6200K and 5000K, so I guess the XBs should look a bit more yellow, which they do against the wall. Anyway...

    You can see the fogs in the bottom left looking a bit more yellow than the headlights. It's not as noticeable looking at the truck though, in the pictures or in person.

    The hi beams look good to me. But when I really need light I just turn on my 30" LED...!

    $200 bills is a little steep I would go anything less than $150 shipped, really like the white LED light but I also know LEDs in halogen housings have limitations
