Default Replacing halogen bulbs in fogs with LED

Planning to replace the halogen H1 bulbs with direct-fit LEDs in our fog lights. Comments?

Yes I did that but use them as DRLs switched by a relay.
If you want the circuit let me know ..more subtle than you think

While the H1-style LED we purchased does plug into the socket for the fog lamp, the diameter is too large to fit thru the hole in the reflector assembly. YMMV…
