    I would go the Osrams or if you can find them, the IPF globes. Don't get anything higher than 4500K in colour because even at 4500K you have a severe drop off in penetration, the more yellow the light, the greater the penetration of light, hence why road markings above the snow line are yellow, the yellow penetrates through fog etc so you can see the lines.

    Would the nightbreaker plus compliment or go well with Volkswagen Polo 6R 2009+ Error Free Side Light Bulbs LED | eBay

    Also the polo is H7?

    parkers are T10/W5W?

    Looking forward to pics

    Wanting to do the following:

    -Low Beam (Osram Nightbreaker)
    -High Beam (Osram Nightbreaker)
    -parker/side globe http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Volkswage...item19cefcb361 ?

    -Fog light change (Brand-Unkown)

    So all the help is welcomed!

    making sure that i'm aiming for a white/crystal white.

    Wondering if what I have lined up thus far will look OEM/Not over the top

    Pics availably are all phone quality so not really usefull.. One of the members has the Phillips Diamond Vision and says they are even whiter than the Osrams and come pretty close to the LED's he has in his parking light

    So far, I've counted five different versions of daytime running lights for the 6R Polo.


    Daytime running lights in the fog lamp housing:

    1. Fog light + optional static cornering light (H8 35W bulb) and DRL (P21W bulb).

    1a. Fog light + optional static cornering light (H8 35W bulb) and no DRL.

    2. DRL (P21W bulb) with no fog light.


    Daytime running lights in the main headlamp housing:

    3. Dipped beam DRL (H7 55W bulb).

    4. Gas-discharge headlights with integrated DRL (LED modules).


    Daytime running lights above the fog lamp housing (VW genuine retrofit):

    5. LED-Tagfahrlicht fur den Polo. Part number is 6R0052190.

    Ohhhh... How do you get those last LEDs you mentioned?

    Doesn't the Polo have H4 globes as well think I read in manual somewhere?
