sorry i dont have pics but ill list down what i have in my headlights.

clearance strip i have the 5 led 194 .5 watt front firing
low beam d2r 6000k blue
fog/high hb2 6000k blue hid kit
im a vleds.com dealer so all of them is vleds brand.

i love my low and fog lights. at night they look awesome. they do have a blue tint to them slighty but they look good. my strip led is white but it actually matches with my headlights. very slighty off but not really noticable. my sidemarkers have the white 5led also but its not the .5 watt front firing one. just the regular one. i have smoke sidemarker covers and when they are on, they actually shine a little blue since the cover is like a diamond cut or something idk someone please explain what the heck im trying to say so overall, all of my lights up front mathc up nicely. let me know if you need from vleds...

ill have to send an email. ill get a response on mon or tues. also, i think one of you said you wanted the light to shine all the way down of the strrip? if so, maybe try using a flank led or a high power front firing. my led shines almost all thee way down of the strip but it could be a little brighter towards the bottom. never bothered to try other leds.. im satisfied

the one thing you have to look at is that the clearance strip at the top where you put the light in has a cut-off inside....typically whenever the CCFL strips are installed that part is usually removed....One other thing to consider is that obviously that area of the lights curves downward....an LED light emission is a direct path straight forward pretty much...so that would be useless to an extent since the light itself needs to bend downward when it emits. However there is nothing in the clearance strip that allows this to happen which is why majority go with the CCFL strips or LED's. your best bet is to stick with a bulb but you need to find a bulb that is bright enough to emit light somewhat further down then OEM. that is really hard since the bulbs you buy for that specific area are typically very dim.

Anyways I have the Clearcorners.com products and I wouldnt go any other route when purchasing lights. I will have alot of new upadates coming soon.

k sorry for the long wait. spoke with the owner of vleds and the .5 watt front firing is no longer available.. it was a great seller but too many leds were burning out.. they were getting too hot, especially in our clearance strips.. the circuit board that was made with that didnt have an ic which is what helps cools the leds.. the 5 led or the x5 (http://www.v-leds.com/Exterior-LED/C...78377-1-2.html ) is what is recommended

So what is the LED number for the clearance strip? Is it 194? 178..someone said that above. I am going to purchase all my LEDS in a few days and would like that part number so I can complete my purchase. Thanks!
