Couple more pics of the 35w 5000k fogs. still waiting on my Eurolamp housings.
You can't even notice the lights inside of the bulb. They are super bright. I wanted the rear lights to match the front ya know. Soon I'll have LED's over my license plate.

Doesn't put out more light, per say, but puts out longer wavelength light that has a less intense frequency when compared to a higher temp bulb/light.. All of which is what you could have meant by "actual light"..

The luminous flux (unit = lumen) is adjusted to reflect the sensitivity of the human eye to different wavelengths of light. So a lumen is a way of measuring how much light covers an area. So lumen isn't an amount of light (beam number wise), but a measure of it's usefulness, due to intensity.. With the lower temp (5K opposed to 6K), you have a longer wavelength and thus, larger light beams in an area. By that, there is "more light" but not in the sense that there are more beams. Just more area of wavelength.. Sorry for the rant and

HoLLo where did you get those LED reverse lights at? And where are all the T/A guys getting the headlight housings at? the only place I know where to get the housing are ledgauges.com and you have to buy there whole setup.
