'06 Coupe "City Lights".........Change to ???

Changed out my '06 fogs to some 4400K's. Much "whiter" than stock and not so distracting from the projectors that I really love........ now about the so-called "City Lights" or running lights. They look really crappy with their yellowish looking "stock" bulbs. Any suggestions? I've actually thought about YELLOW 194 wedges for daytime running.
Also, any of the wedge type bulbs actually brighter than what comes "stock"? Would LED's endup being dimmer? Thought about them (LED'S) for heir blue/white look.
Hoping someone with 06 Coupe has addressed this situation and has some suggestions. Thanks and a very Happy New Year to all!

I got mine replaced with some LED lights and they look great. They don't match the projectors too much but I'm cool with them.

THe brand and model name, kinda unknown to me and i think to most here, is called Moto Sports Type R LED Light

I replaced mine with a 194 filament Polarg hyperwhite wedge. It looks great, not blue at all. I wish I could get my clear corners to look that way too. Somebody said that LEDs would be more prone to failure next to a high heat source such as your fog lamp, which is why I went with a filament bulb.
