I like having DRLs, but don't really like their dull ugly color much. This thread reminded me I wanted to look around, but I think these ones look a lot better than the posted ones, and they have 3x more LEDs so they have a chance of being visible during the day.

They do cost $5 more, though:

True, but I'd rather wait a few weeks (or take them up on the $3.50 expedited shipping) for a better-looking part since you can see into the headlight assembly so easily on this car. Of course, there is a shroud in there that covers it up partially, so perhaps I'm being to picky.

Be careful with the Ebay ones, the ~$10 ones to be exact, people have reported failures and longevity issues with them. Also, those are only 18 LED's they tend to be a little dim.

The ones I installed for DRL's are 220 lumens, just for comparison.
