Fog lights before and after
#5
So far I put the fog lights in. They are 10k LED from a company called OPT7 lighting. I also got their low beam LED replacement lights at 5000 K. It'll just be a little bit crisper and more of a pure white then stop. I've already done the reverse light switch I'll put a picture up and I'm going to order the LED blinkers for the mirrors and rear. I have led Amber blinkers up front but have not put them in yet until they all match. My whole interior is done LED also. It makes the car looks so clean and crisp at night you would be surprised

Honestly it's a little more blue than I thought it was going to be, but it looks so good at night and it actually increases visibility exponentially. The the way that they build their LED bulbs focuses the light on the ground and in front of you more than stock

the 'look good at night' portion is subjective but visibility wise is a load of horsecrap. But you like the way it looks so that trumps everything else.

Yeah it looks better in person than the picture. My camera is decent but it's not the best they have out there. Like I said, it was a lot more blue than I thought it would be but I'm still happy with it and it's definitely better for visibility than the stock ones are. I just wanted to add some color since everything else is Led white and red and Amber.

but it DOESN'T provide more visibility though...
You can claim you like the way it looks all you want but stop with the claims
because it's 100% irrefutably false. Do they look great? That's subjective, but visibility is objective.

Stock halogen bulbs produce 600-800 lumens unless you have H1 bulbs, and then you will be lucky to get 1000-1200. VERY few LEDs on the car market can produce those numbers. Without more lumens you irrefutably cannot have better visibility unless one of the setups significantly scatters light, and the stock setup does not do that.
Furthermore, human photoreceptors in the eye have a reduced sensitivity to violet light. As you move down in wavelengths through the light spectrum from green, the eye sensitivity DECREASES exponentially. Sensitivity to blue light is about 10% of what it is to green/yellow.

I'm not hating. I am disputing your claims of better visibility. Please provide any tangible evidence to support your claims.

lol, but the lumens affect the counter balance of the variant road reflection which means that due to the average 80-85 degree weather in florida, you can only see 13.554 feet!!!!
