    not the best for rain, dust, or fog.
    they also irritate the human eye

    hey, long as u can see in the fog and rain...............and the blue effects ALL human eyes, including yours. Just watch for any fatigue.

    Assuming you are doing a retrofit since the stock headlights are not made for LED or HID... HID is better than LED.

    I just put a new set of Cali Raised Hi/Low LED's in mine and love them so far. These are not for sale yet as I am a tester. And they are not blue, but bright white and 6K. This pic is from 150 feet away.

    So we just started doing the head light LED bulbs so I am not an expert in the field. But from what i understand, only H4's fit in 2nd gens and H11 fit in 3rd Gens.
