I have tried several different H11 bulbs in my Si. I will list MY opinions on each of them below.
  • Stock - Yellowish light, not very good.
  • Ebay special - These were actually my second favorite. Good output brightness and okay distance.

  • Cougar Motor LED - They looked good when you are looking at them, but they didn't have the distance. I ended up sending these back.

  • Sylvania Silverstar Ultra - Good light output, but too yellow for my taste. Used as spare.

  • Qcheye - Good look and light output. Much better distance. These are the ones I will stick with. They actually have 288 ratings & a 5.0 Star review. View attachment 135724

The leds definitely dont throw very far. They appear brighter because they dump all the light right in front of the vehicle, but they have no width and no depth. Wait till it rains and you cant see in front of your with leds. HIDs are the way to go.
I could not agree more with this comment the throw distance sucks and when it rains it is pretty damn bad. I am considering switching to HIDs or even to a better Halogen bulb.

the H11 to H9 bulb conversion is actually pretty bright if you dont want to go HID. this guy has all the info https://www.hidplanet.com/forums/fo...alogens/1409801-ryan-s-guide-to-halogen-bulbs

I have the 5500k LED fog light bulbs and they match the running lights perfectly
The morimoto XB LED fog that I have is nice too. It was foggy this morning in DFW and they definitely helped.

Excuse my dog, she was in every damn pic I took. But you are right not wide at all. I'm good for now though.

That's a fine looking animal. This place could use a few more dogs catching the mod bug.
