    Why?
    The factory hid's are pretty good. I don't think led's would be better?

          Don't know what model year you have but do you mean the DRL's? If so, they are yellowish and LED replacements are easy but I found they don't last, ended up pulling out the relays. I find DRL's pretty pointless anyway.

            I reckon he must be talking about the drl's my factory bulbs were yellow, chucked led in them, now white
            My factory hid for main beam are bright white.

              No my hids in the main projector low beam, mine have a slight yellow tinge, almost like a normal halogen bulb, I prefer a crisp white

                A lot of HID when used correctly in projector headlights have a yellow/ blue tinge to the top, you can notice this when a vehicle with HID projectors are coming towards you.
                My MQ Triton had HID and they were only the 25watt , Low beam was faultless, Had that yellow/Blue hue to the top ( which I kind of like) High beam was a different story, added a nice slimline LED Light bar to the Nudge Bar, couldn't fault high beam after that
