Sorry for the large pic. So what do you guys think. Should I stay stock? Go with the amber? Or change em to white? I went with amber cause it only cost me 1.50. If yall are wondering what happend to my grill. I cut it out with the dremel cause I got bored when I was painting the headlights. Plus I saw someone else on here did the same thing.

edit: I dont know what that is on my hood. I thought a bird took a shit on it.:mad: Went to go check it out and nothing was there.

I used to have "white" LEDs in there, and kept them until one LED assembly burned out. When I put the stock 194 filament bulbs back in, I was surprised at how much brighter they really were than the LEDs. Whatever I replace the regular bulbs with will also be filament-type bulbs -- the LEDs don't take advantage of the reflectors in the housing (which were designed for filament bulbs in the first place).

Don't use red unless it's just for car shows, though. Red lights are for the rear of the car only.

I don't really like messing with the oem lighting, unless to upgrade to real HID. I think the amber in the city lamp housing looks good on a black car. I think the yellow looks better on a silver or white car IMO.
