im currently using Hikari led 9600 lm 6k... for both high beam and low beam.
for its price... cant beat it.
sure, hid kit are much brighter... i ran a few of them on my previous cars.
had many problems with a lot of flickering and discoloration. headaches.

if you want brighter led... try Hikari led 12000 lm 6k...

but other than that... i bought 5 sets of Hikari led 9600 lm 6k for several cars...
not one problem yet. and sure 100x better than halogen bulbs.
Do you have to adjust it?

The more expensive hikari's are on lightning deal right now for $71.99 and I had a $20 off additional coupon. I already have them for my car but thinking about getting a pair for the wife's car
Do the 12,000 lms are safe for oncoming cars?

The LED fogs are honestly TOO bright. I know I'm blinding people at night/early morning, so I barely get to use them...

They are Hikari H11 LEDs and currently $37 on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07GKPR452?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title

As for the headlights, I actually swapped out the Morimoto HIDs and got the Hikari Eye of Megatron LEDs. Super happy with them!

Here is a pic with the same fogs, but with LED headlight bulbs:

I actually went with VLEDS 6000k. I have used these guys in the past with other vehicles. The quality and brightness are very good. Never had any problems with any of their products. And right now they have a 25% off labor day going on.

Yes. Those are the ones I reviewed in this thread.

But to be honest, I have since replaced these with the Katana 12000 lumen LEDs and I like these much more. The extra lumens really helps down the road visibility. I'd keep an eye for the Katana's when Amazon puts a deal on them.
Did you have to adjust you hikari lights?

I recently bought the Hikari LED 12,000 lm 6k. for my low beams. They work good and It's more than enough. However, I gotta ask you, wouldn't the high beam shine only as bright as the low beam?
Thet are not illegal right for california?

Illegal or not, I haven't been pulled over. I drove from Long Beach to Fresno with no issues from CHP. I believe these should be legal. I actually want to throw LEDs in for my high beams.

I'd be very surprised. Been pulling 100mi commutes every day, half of the commute with these lights on.

Just recently bought the Hikari Ultra LED's and I am impressed so far. Much brighter than the stock halogens and build quality seems heavy duty. Glad I spent the extra 40$ up from the Katanas. Just a few pics included from during installation and before/afters of the light output on a very dark road in my town

WallofKron,

Have a link to what you bought? The stock lights are garbage for me right now. I need to do something now that it is dark out 70% of the day

The Hikaris are a bit brighter for the extra 40$ if that is worth it
I did some research at bulbfacts

https://www.bulbfacts.com/led-kits/chart/projectors.html

Be sure the projector option is selected.

According to them, the mid range priced Hikaris are a little brighter but the budget Hikaris are dimmer than their top budget choice.

I am a budget type of guy and getting low\high\fog from Katana. The regular size for lows and small form factor for high and fog.I

That being said, WallofKron has some pretty sweet looking leds.
