Well I bought some LED Headlights off amazon for dirt cheap and honestly they are amazing! I love the looks and it matches my DRL's perfectly, The picture doesn't really do it justice but for $40 i'm very impressed, very easy to put in too. Excuse the halogen fog lights, im gonna be changing those to either LED's
or yellow fog lights (opinions on that are welcome) Also excuse the dirty car i live in Minnesota and its -20 today so lots of salt on the road.

Here's the link to the headlights in case anyone wants to take a peek:

Yeah I’m happy with my Amazon led fogs. The headlights are so so. Might switch them out at some point.

I started with led on my headlights but switched to hid lights and led yellow fogs. Huge difference. I always buy on Amazon. You find gems

I would switch out your led headlights for some 6k HID's if you aren't satisfied with how well they illuminate ... Hids will always give a stronger light output compared to LEDs.. I went HID low beams and LED fogs.. couldn't be more satisfied

I had HIDs in my last car. They were bright but flakey. They didn’t always turn on when it was below 20 degrees. I might just get some brighter LEDs

How hard was it to install HID, LED's were simple plug and play which is more of what i wanted plus where I live it has been -20 these past two weeks and I heard HID's wont always turn on in the cold

I haven't had any issues with my hids. They are also plug and play. It seems more complicated because of the ballasts but it's simple. If a plug doesnt go somewhere it wont fit.

Yeah they are very straightforward. The hardest part is finding a spot for the ballasts. I didn't have issues with my HID's until after a few years. They started not always coming on in the cold. DDM is a good company to work with. They warranty their stuff for a long time. The only issue is their stuff comes from China, so you have to wait a while for a replacement.

I had Morimoto HIDs in my last car, they never failed to turn on, even at -30. Took 10-15 seconds to warm up to full brightness at that temperature, though.

Yeah mine were cheap lol. I’m not about to drop $100 or more for HIDs.
