Yep. They sure are white and they are clear as day, during the day. They are perfect.

That is NOT correct. The Angel Eyes are H8, not H7. The Fogs are H11. The xenons are D1S. Look back at some of my earlier posts.

Got the GP Thunders 8500K, hooked them up in like 10mins, quite easy, looks great. Hooked up the resistors to the LEDs so that the error is not showing up. Will post the pics shortly. Great inexpensive mod, costed less than 50 bucks in all
Thanks cmans for the GP Thunder info. and the resistor install idea for the license plate LEDs

^ also got my GP Thunders done for angel eyes and fogs. Great match at 8500k, nice white, no blue - easy mods. When the headlights are on though, the AE goes into low power mode and the middle 2 AEs especially are not as bright. Still beats the amber though... fogs too... hated the mismatch amber. Will post pics after I snap the fogs too (did them on separate days).

Thanks cman.

Oh if you guys can post pics for the resistor/plate lamp, it'd be appreciated.
