2005 TL LED fog light question

anyone familiar with this style:
9006 HB4 5K MT-G2 2100LM LED HEADLIGHT FOG LIGHT | 1 PAIR - 9006 HB4 - Shop Bulb #


I am looking to replace the stock halogen fogs, want whiter (5k) and would like to be atleast a little brighter.

Anyone know how these look and or fit?

I put them in my DRL (I have an 04). Im about to replace my factory HIDs with them also but I went with a different brand that I found on ebay for 90$ and they put out a bit more light.... 3200 lumens each

I'm willing to bet the light dispersion, beam width, cut off line and many other things are going to not be very good.

The projectors were engineered specifically for optimum light output using a xenon bulb.

A LED bulb does not disperse light out in the same manner as a xenon bulb. Results will most likely be worse.

Should have just doubled down and paid $185 for osram CBIs which are one of the top xenon bulbs on the market. Do it right the first time.

If you really do go through with it please post pictures. I would love to be proven wrong.
