Daylight running lamps

I'm looking to upgrade my daylight running lamps to LED or just something brighter that looks good. Does anyone have any recommendations for ones to get?

I guess you have the ugly halogens.

You can get aftermarket headlights that have led daytime running lights

You will still have yellow light on the low and high beams, but you can change the h7 bulbs for leds or normal ones with higher temperature.

Watch this video to get an idea of what temperature you want

The factory LEDs look cool but don't illuminate very well at night. The halogens are actually better but don't look as nice. They don't look bad though.
