suggestions for LEDs for foglight/sidelight/main beam?

Okay, I recently installed an LED reverse light and its making a huge amount of difference when backing up at night, very happy with it. Now planning to upgrade bulbs to LEDs on the front.

My Zed is equipped with f/f xenons (dipped only) and I would prefer a more uniform spread of white light across the front - the sidelights, foglights and main beam all appear to project light with a yellowish tinge :thumbsdown:

Checked out my local Halfords who suggested the following:

LED sidelights 501 W5W 200 lumens 6000k ... £15.00
LED foglights 711 H11 LED 12v 6W ... £35.00

Don't think there is an LED bulb available for the main beam unless any of you guys know differently?

thoughts or suggestions on upgrading to LEDs and also any details or recommendations of online stockists much appreciated :)
 
Have the same headlights as you and decided to update only the sidelights as there's no improvements to be gained in replacing the high beam and fogs with Leds. Considered converting the forga to drls but its a faff so aborted that idea.
My sidelight led pics are on that 'what did u do to ur car' thread somewhere....
 
You can get LED dipped or main beam lights. The trouble is they all seem to require a standard H7 fitting and the Z4 uses an adapter to hold the bulb. I bought some but had to use them on the 330 instead.

NOT at all :) improvement over standard halogeen, but NOT as bright as xenons, just as expected. Image is excellent.

The LEDs I put on the 330 are very bright, much more than the HIDs on my Z4. PAid about £75 for them, if you buy the cheap stuff then yes they are too dim.
