P13W DRL Options - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I went ahead and installed the harness to have my DRL on with the headlights. Now I need to decide on a bulb that matches the RS headlights. It looks like that I will need to go with LED to make that happen. There are a bunch of options from $15.00 each to $100 for a set at the Camaro specific stores.

The reason for the post is that I am not looking for the brightest light. I really hate it when I get blinded by "super bright LED's" by other drivers. I don't want to be that guy. It looks like diode dynamics has a set for $40.00 that claim to be just a cosmetic upgrade - color only. Has anyone had any experience with them?

I have them and color match is excellent.

I have the HP60s which are 510 lumens. They are pretty bright but they are only on during the day. They are a very white light similar to the headlights. I'm sure the HP48s are a similar color but they are 280 lumens. I would think the HP48s would be better if on with your headlights at night.
