H1 LED Bulb

I was thinking about replacing my fog light bulbs with LED.

Does anyone knows if this one would fit

if you are concerned with output at all, this is a very bad idea.

Well I dont even turn on my foglights anymore cause I hate that yellow light so much.

I also replaced the city light with LED and it looks so much cooler now.

They would be great for a daytime running light but that's about it.

I picked up a pair myself - really for daytime running, to match my LED's everywhere else including city light and led strip (and corners).

I'll pop em in and send back word.

At first attempt the roundness of the LED's doesnt fit in the slim hole the original fog light comes out of. I will see if there is a way to remove piece prohibiting them and slide it back over top after the light is in place... more to come on this whole thing next week.

I'm also attempting to change out my stock H1 bulb. Do you guys have any trick for removing the bulb? It's so hard to get to, I got to it but it was a challenging process. I'm ordering 8000k H1 bulbs to match with my headlights. Also, what is that other bulb close to the fog light? it looks like a 168 bulb, i believe it's called the DRL, can anyone verify on this, because i would like to put replace it with LED. Thank you, sorry if i thread jacked.

The light down in there with the H1 is your city light.

check out www.jay-diem.com thats where I got my city light led's..

I got the LED H1s from V-led.... they dont fit but I'm going to give it a better run here in the next week...

the LEDs from JD seem very nice, but dang cost a lot! lol. im trying to match my 8000k headlights.i dont think the 6000k LED will be good enough but 13000k would be overkilled lol

using LED to match HID is a bad plan. LED is monochromatic light, while HID has a broader spectrum

I'm not looking to replace my HID's with LED, the only lights I'm looking to replace are my fogs, not my lows\highs...

what i really want is a nice white glow to the housing where the city lights are while im driving around during the day.

I picked up some H1 LED's from Diode Dynamics and I am having the same fitment issues. Any luck getting them to fit?
