Got my PIAA's!!!
Hey guys, I just got my PIAA Xtreme White Plus 9006's, it took about half an hour to install... I know I know 10 minute DIY job but that passenger side headlight is #!%!ing hard to get to and manuever around so yeah. Anyways I got some pics sorry it's not night yet in CA so I'll take more later. Oh and it was a Twin pack, I was so excited I installed one already before I was like "oh gotta take pics for the CL guys".

Yeah really, I have the other set of 9006's I was going to put into my fogs, but I'm trying to plan out how I'm going to take the headlight housing...

Looks great! You need to take the plastic covering of wheel well off to get inside the fender for the parking light. Stub philip screw driver and a 10mm socket will do. No need to take off headlight, just reach for sockets from the wheel well.
Here is a 9LED wedge bulb that replaces 168/194. I have Sylvania Silverstar and plan to upgrade to HID when it burns out. BTW, these whiter halogen lights are designed to last only one year. My passenger side already blew out after 14 months.
Compare the light output of stock vs 9LED you will see the difference, I recommend you to upgrade it when you upgrade fog lights.

Hyperwhite, has a slight blue tint. The color flavor depends on who makes them. There is one guy on GS (or lighting) forum that bought many LED bulbs and took side by side pictures w/ his 6000K HID. I have blue 9LED bulbs for front courtesy lights, brighter and more pleasing to look at.

Looks very nice tcheung87.
Couple of quesitons; Do you have any concerns about current carrying capability of the wires and the connectors plus is there any concern about additional heat dissipation [if any].
Not always but usually brighter fillaments have shorter life.
