Headlight upgrade

I am wanting to upgrade the halogen bulbs in my 06 v8 limited with a projector low beam. I was originally thinking a 4500k hid low beam and 3700k hid fog light and leave the hi beam but now I'm wondering if it would be possible and feasible with plug n play kits to add an led hi beat setup to the mix?
This year will be my first winter in a snowy climate so will the temperatures I've picked for low and fog be reasonable or is there something better?

I have Morimoto 5K 35w in the low beam, Morimoto 3k 35w in fogs, and VLED 1800lm LED's in the brights (the older ones), the new models look impressive 4500lm on the new mini, and 6000lm on the lmz. have had no issue with the ballasts, LED responds instantly to activation.

make sure you do the squirrel spotter mod on your low beams, and verify that your headlights are aligned correctly.

Do it. I went with a 6000k kit for 29.99 on amazon because it was on sale. Very pleased with light output. I prefer 5000k color thought.

I have LED bulbs in my wifes car. I have not had problems with those either and they are slightly brighter than factory.
 
go for 6k, crystal white...5k has a hint of yellow.
previously had 6k, changed passenger side to 5k, didnt like it
