Those are LEDs, are they not?

At this point in time almost all companies only recommend their LED products as DRLs because they do not yet have the necessary output to operate as a primary lighting source at night. Not sure how you got a different impression.

I'd think 3000+ lumens are pretty good. My 18w LED pod lights put out 1660 each

You need higher lumens (1000+, minimum). 420 is good for dome and backup lights.
