Pics in sunlight are what matter, NOT at night, garage, ect. Of course the bulbs will look bright at night.

So you went with a single stage led versus the dual stage as the car came with (3156 vs 3157) for some reason they dont sell a 3157 DRL version? Interesting, @ any rate I'm back to 3157 yellow bulbs for now. I have a ton of these leds I spent $ for nothing, just picked up a set from auto lumination @ $40, they won't even snap into the sockets. Sell them cheap if anyone wants them...

i stand corrected........i looked at my receipt from super brite.....its a 3157 i put in the fronts......but on their website they show that the dual intensity 3157s they have are NOT DRL compatible.......but when i bought mine ( over a yr ago ) they listed the ones i got as DRL compatible......go figure
