I tried a few of the eBay and Amazon LED lights, including the LED Auxito lights that were recommended to me. The color matched my white DRL's but they just didn't cut it on brightness at all. Then I tried RadioFlyer's LED fog lights and I couldn't be happier. $60 well spent and installation was a snap. Just turned up my pop-ups manually and reached in there and got both sides done in around 10 minutes. And yeah, had a few scratches on my forearms, but was worth the trade off to me. The adjustment screw in the front makes alignment a snap.

Yep... they're $12. But if you can justify blowing $60 on a pair of nearly identical fog light bulbs, then whatever floats your boat....

bought the ones in that link... offered $10 & they accepted. not exactly the quick plug-and-play i expected but still worth it.

mine took slight modification - same as if you bought HIRs to replace lows/highs

mine have a clean, focused cut-off and are aimed right. picture is in my write-up

i saw those, too. some vendors sell them without the connector - i avoided them. most have the correct plugs.

these're probably slightly dimmer than RadioFlyer's, but still a significant improvement & useful.
and FYI, if anybody has Z06 screens, those block the adjustment screw & make alignment more complicated
