Similar things like this have been done allready, but I thought I'd share this one.
I got these driving lites: http://www.truckaddons.com/Catalog/subpages/EagleEyeFogDriving01.asp
The 1862BW Clear lens, which is a a m11 20w halogen.
Inspired from this article:

Then I got the Cree R2 drop in's:

I cut off the M11 with a dremal cut off wheel right behind the lip of the front lens so the R2 would have a nice glass lens, (saftey glasses please, flying glass :lol: ).
Then solderd wires on the R2 and reassembled the driving lite, runs off my 12v booster pack and gives pleanty of lite.
I tried just the 20w m11, but it was too broad a beam, (blinded on coming traffic), and drew 20w, the Cree is a narrow beam and a softer lite, and I don't get high beams flashed at me any more.
