Truemagellen - Would it make sense to get the 6LED 194 Focused beam for the running lights closest to the badge? I noticed you got the 5 LED type, which are more of a flood than beam.

HOLY CRAP.. someone revived my thread
ITS ALIVE!!!
In answer to the question... there's several manufacturers out there who sell full HID kits. Expect to pay $350 - $600 to get it all done.
I haven't looked to closely into this (mine came with HID), but i'm sure you can find it pretty easily.
This would be a good starting point https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-exterior-appearance-body-kits-27/

These are the White/White color, not to be confused with PIAAs Blue/White version.

Here is a pick of my lights, running polarg hyperwhites in the sidemarkers and clearance lights,Nokya H11 Ice whites in the fogs. I love how they match the HIDS perfectly for a uniform look.

This picture was taken a few months ago with autolumination 6 led's in the driving lights and Hoen H11 fog light bulbs.
I've since added 194 wedge bulbs to the clear corners. I did notice that one of my driving lights burned out 2 nights ago so I'll be replacing that in about an hour. Hopefully this isn't the dreaded autolumination curse.

You can get the HID kit from www.motoringmax.com, or just the 6000K/8000K HID bulbs.
I brought a pair of D2S bulbs for my low beam and the H11 HID Conversion kit for my foglight there for about 250 shipped. Really good deal.

if i were to install the super white 5 LEDs in the side markers, same bulbs as truemgln. (clear) and in the parking light sockets, would they match the color of the factory 4300K HIDs?

I've got Vled's in there now. Autolumination worked well but their quality is horrible.
