LED fog lights in a '13 sedan

Want to swap out the standard fogs for LEDs, which ones do you guys recommend? Looking at diode dynamics as they seem to be really popular on the board, but are there any others worth looking at or using?

+1 on the Mori's!!!

You'll probably find those are popular here.

DD has great products as well...and free shipping. PM DD for a shipping code that we, as forum members, are lucky enough to use. Great company IMO.

I've been running the xB direct fit morimoto fogs from TRS for 10 months now. Seamless operations, great output... and I believe you can still get the for $50 off with a code found on FB.

Regarding the color/temp of the fogs, which is closest to the oem hids?

Still using the stock hids for now, and I want the fogs to look as close to them in color and output as possible....would it be safe to say 4300k hids are similiar to 4300k leds?

The Morimoto plug and play fog LED housing is cooler than the OEM bulbs. If you want something to match the OEM HID's, you could grab a quality HID kit from Diode and run 4300K. That would be my route if I wanted that look. The reason I say quality HID kit is because some of the cheaper HID kits that are on the market, aren't necessarily true to their color claims such as DDM tuning.


They also have a LED fogs but I have no idea what their 4000k would look like. This route has the advantage of not having to worry about mounting a ballast and troubleshooting an extra pair of components in case something goes out.
