Hey guys got a q and i know i can get some good answers here. 2009 tl sh-awd. Recently blew out a fog and went to replace it, my skinny arm fits right in there. Umm i was thinking about buyin a set of hid xenons rippoff fake bulbs you see. I believe there 5900k umm what are the stock bulbs putting out? I just hate that clash b/w the headlights and fog and am too cheap to buy a kit or anything like that. I just didnt know if there would make them look better.some advice.. thanks guys....... and i am that dude that rides with his fog lights on all the time lol

 

Don't be cheap, the HiD's are worth the money. Have them on the RDX and they are really nice. Typically not something I would spend money on, but we use it as our hard winter weather driving car and I couldn't be happier!

 

raptor kit from ddm tuning

if you cannot afford that you probably should not be driving a 4th gen TL lol

oh and btw the stock bulbs are usually about 4300k

 

I looked at their website and am more confused now. Which one is the raptor kit?

I want to swap out my fog lights to match the headlights as well.

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks

 

I'd go with the Morimoto Elite kit. Read the specs at the link below and you'll know why. Also if you want to color match, get the Morimoto XB35 bulbs for you lows as well in the same kelvin rating. I went with 5k and the light output is much better than the non-name 6k's.

Another option to increase light output is getting some H9's to replace the H11's. It requires some work on the tabs, but nothing too difficult. Difference is 1200 - 1350 lumens from the stock H11's, compared to 2100 lumens (considering the same 3100k rating).

you can get a set of headlight bulbs from them that are the same color (kelvin temp) as the HID kit you know they will match perfectly

 

^Same kit is on eBay too, the seller has different colored bulbs:
