A nice way to brighten up your front bumper parking lights

Two sets of 18-inch wheels—SSR GT7’s and CCW Classics’s—offer an easy switch between street and track driving, both with the best Michelin tyres available.

And this might be a really stupid question, but is there an LED option that would improve on the H3s in the OEM fog-lights? Something better than the Silverstars?

Thanks XxMerlinxX!
To add to XxMerlinxX's post, yes the LED's have a different resistance on the whole electrical system. It doesn't bother me that the lights blink faster now. I hardly use them so no biggie...
Just in case, the site I mentioned does sell a resistance "pack" for your turn signals. Located at the bottom of the page in the 1156,1157, etc section.
I tried to save a few bucks trying to get LED's that should have been more than adequate. The 1 watt's were a bit more expensive than the regular LED's. Big mistake! lol
You live and learn. The regular LED's simply aren't bright enough. Stick with the 1 watt's and now the 3 watt Luxeon LED's to give you the proper lighting conditions.
Especially when it comes to the amber light. Red LED's are alot brighter and richer than the ambers. It should be equal but they're not.
I'm gonna be ordering the last few LED's for the car in March. Getting the 3watt Luxeon for the front turn signals and getting the 3x 1 watt for the reverse lights.
Lates,

Just take the number from the guide and match it with the replacement from the LED site.
