SWC Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 Hey all, I have a 2016 titanium with factory HIDs. I’m in Canada so I have the DRLs also. I really would like to change out the H15 DRLs to LED but I’d like them to match the colour of the signature bumper LEDs. Does anyone know the exact colour of the bumper LEDs? I have tried a set of H15 bulbs at 6500K and they aren’t even close. Lol. I’d love to put LED headlights in also but I know that’s not possible with the factory HIDs. Can anyone give me any ideas?? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gadgetjq Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 I've never seen any official rating for the signature light color temperature but would hazard a guess they're 4500 to 5000k. Certainly not the bright white of 6000k and they don't have any of the blue common with 6500k. The big problem you're facing (as does everyone trying to exactly match front light appearance) is a lack of standardization. The 6000k of one bulb maker is, all too often, the 5000k of another. In the end you'll have to experiment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1004ron Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 The ones I installed appear to be a perfect color match. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you can find the bulbs again on iJDMToy and update the link?

Here's the original: https://store.ijdmtoy.com/Audi-BMW-Mercedes-VW-H15-LED-Daytime-Lights-p/40-341.htm IIRC I bought them off Amazon - here's another seller. https://www.amazon.com/BSLighting-Power-Headlight-Daytime-Running/dp/B071CPSWJC/ref=sr_1_6?keywords=White+80W+CREE+H15+LED+Bulbs&qid=1572823605&s=automotive&sr=1-6 https://store.ijdmtoy.com/products/led-headlight-foglamp-40-344-white?_pos=1&_sid=dbc40d052&_ss=r Got to select the correct option. https://xotictech.com/products/xotic-tech-2-super-bright-100w-high-power-cree-h15-led-bulbs-for-vw-audi-bmw-mercedes-drl-lamps This one is 100W, a little brighter.
