I have em, crappy pics but you get the idea... They're bright, but light output sucks since they're LED's. I just use them as DRL's.... I got mine from v-leds.com..

(I'd like amber ones in my box, even. Would look good and box fogs are just for decoration, anyway.)

You could just drill holes in the fog light housing and install LEDs in the holes and run them off snother switch, That way you would still have the function of the fog light and turn them green for shows

Isn't 9005 the 65 watt version of 9006? I am thinking they have the same lug pattern.

Those are not HID as far as I can tell, I have some insane bright LEDs in my running lamps also. Pictures of them look like HID installed in high beam reflectors.

I am thinking I will order the amber ones. Had a new Caddy following me home today and it had amber DRL's low on the bumper and it looked nice. I know the tC won't look that nice but........
