There is no way you could replace your foglights/high beam with a simple LED bulb that fits in the old socket. Vleds, superbrightleds, etc don't even use real high power LED clusters for their drop-in replacements. The biggest and most expensive bulb on Vleds (http://www.v-leds.com/Shop/Control/P...id/0/SFV/32481) that I found in a quick search is $50 and uses 10, 1/2 Watt LED's for a TOTAL of 5W. That particular model doesn't show lumen output, but the largest one I found on the site had about 120 lumen output.
So I say again, there is no way to get a drop-in replacement that can equal the light output of either an H1 or H4 bulb. All these drop in replacements will light up the housing if that is all you are going for, but you will NOT get any useful fog light or high beam function.
