Looking on ebay for the front LED parking lights (194). There are quite a few different styles of LED lights and I was wondering which style worked best? Maybe the larger CREE led's vs. the smaller led lights? Also which have you found are bright enough and last? I heard heat from the high beams can be an issue. Thanks.

zach, I think you are going to find that the CREE light setup is going to be the way to go. You don't really save anything in the way of power, but you will get lots more light out of the CREEs.
As for the heat destroying anything that you put in there, I guess it depends on how much you use your high beams. For most people, the amount of time that the high beams are on is going to be relatively insignificant in the big picture of things. If you live in a rural area, then yes, it may be a factor. If you are worried about heat, then I would stick more with the CREEs than LEDs. The CREEs are going to take the heat a lot better than the LEDs are going to.
