I just switched mine about 5 mins ago. They don't match up like your pics do and I have stock HIDs too 
. I even bought the bulb from the link you posted. I was thinking i would need it to let it settle in for a little bit like HIDs but its just regular halogen bulbs.

It looks like you changed your DRLs and the M4s and somehow your DRLs are on with the low beam. I just changed to the M4s and my DRLs shut off when my low beams are on so just the M4s are lit and like timtem said it doesn't look as intense as yours.

The way a light blub shows in a photo compared to how it appears in person are never the same.
This is a good thread on this topic...

Would like to see how M6's match up to oem low beam, anyone using these?
M4 = 5w
M6 = 18w
Would this be okay to use?

this is true. I guess i was just disappointed with the results when I changed mine because now you can't even tell at night that there is even light passing through the housing.

Ya. The photos show that it is brighter than it is in person. It's a bit dull but I'm satisfied with them. They're a lot better than the stock lights, imo.

I'm assuming you're talking about the fog lights? The M4 bulb replaces the parking lights (DRL) which should be on when the low beams are on assuming it's set to auto. There should be a separate thing for the fog lights.
Someone correct me if I am wrong.

I found an LED that matches the OEM HID perfectly. I posted it in the 2GS forum a while back.

I'm not selling these or anything, just sharing with you guys since I've tried countless LEDs and Polarg bulbs and these are by far the best match.

Yeah, had them for only 2 weeks because they were too dim and blue. Switched to LED and it turned out to be much much better. Perfect match for 6K HIDs and brighter than stock. (Used V-Led Hi power ones)

So I bought and installed these and have to say that they aren't even close to matching the stock HID's. In fact, they are just as yellow as the factory bulbs that I replaced! Ugh! Perhaps the ebay seller had a change in supplier? I dunno...I think I'll go for the Polargs.
M4s with my 6k now don't match as well, I need to order the LEDs again.
