yeah but they have them attached to the wrong bulbs.... they have them associated with the crummier super high count tinyled one, not the camaro foglight ones we bought
Hey Storm,
Are these the ones you're talking about? http://store.ijdmtoy.com/Chevy-Camaro-RS-SS-Fog-DRL-LED-Bulbs-p/p13w-led-fog-light-4j.htm
Are they as quick and easy to snap in as the ones listed for the cx-5? I have GT w tech. Thanks for your advice. Appreciated.

Are yours still working? You still happy with them?

yeah they're still working fine, yeah fairly happy, wish they were a lil brighter but thats to be expected with leds, but they're still very visible
Has anyone ever used these/have any info on them? The seller says they are the brightest DRLs for the cx-5. If anyone has any feedback it would be appreciated.

of course they say that lol...
problem with those cree's is they apparently dont have sufficient heat sinks so the crees that face forward dim after awhile from heating up from what i've read
I just installed these 18 LED SMD bulbs as DRL, they look great! I was afraid they wouldn't be as bright, but they're nice and bright and white!

If no one is in a rush, you can get them shipped from China for much less:

Been meaning to follow up on this about brightness. I understand the lights will be whiter than stock, but are they as bright as stock? Brighter? Less bright?
Keep in mind that these are DRLs, not head lights! Brightness should not be a factor. The only reason that people are replacing the OEM DRL bulb is to get a "whiter" light because they prefer the look compared to the yellowish OEM bulb.

I definitely do not want headlight brightness, but I wouldn't want the LEDs to be significantly dimmer than stock. I mean, DRLs are essentially safety equipment, so I wouldn't want to reduce their effectiveness.
I think this photo should confirm the brightness issue (LED on left, OEM on right)
BTW, I ordered 4 from China for the CX-5's in the family.

Cool, ordered two of these from the ebay link you put up earlier. For such a cheap price you can't go wrong.
Edit: BTW, I hope I didn't miss it in a previous post but is changing the bulb pretty easy? Can it be found in the manual?
