PIAA Xtreme White LEDs
After having several Autolumination LED bulbs burn out on me, I decided to order some PIAA Xtreme White 6-LED bulbs for my parking lights. Well, I am a little disappointed, as they turned out to be more blue than white. I thought I was sent the wrong color, but they're definitely the "white" ones. Also, they don't even seem as bright as the Autolumination bulbs with a comparable 6-LED bulb. From the pictures I've seen around here, the PIAA Super LED in White/White seem to match the HIDs a lot better than the Xtremes. Guess I'll be getting a set of those. Anyway, check out the Xtreme White LEDs on the car:

do you have the zenon headlamps, it might match those better but make sure you do the fogs as well. right now that is a big difference in color.
i have heard quite a few bad things about the autolumanation bulbs lately as well. guess i wont be going with them.

Quite a price difference, but if the first ones are whiter, then more expensive doesn't always mean better.

i believe BigOLundh has the white/white (super white) PIAA led. from his pics they are a little blue when turned on w/ the xenon headlights,but not anything like yours, and they look pretty good.
