Does anyone know specifics around getting a bulb that is close to the litronic tone that does not look ricey? One side has burned out so good chance to replace both with a color that is at least whiter than factory.

I did find this with my 4th search:
www.42draftdesigns.com
and am looking at getting the High Intensity BAX9S LED, but want to know what color to get that matches nicely - the blue or the white?

I purchased mine from here ... http://www.superbrightleds.com/BA9S6_specs.htm
looks like the ones you listed above are from the same vendor.
The litronics use H6WU bulbs but the BA9s listed here will work. You will have to trim off one of the nipples at the base of the bulb since the factory ones are slightly offset. These were the cheapest, brightest bulbs I found in my search.

Lots of people poo-poo the PIAAs and say they are too expensive, but they've never melted anything of mine, not fried any harnesses, and have never failed, so they are worth it to me. YMMV

Or, the bulbs listed at the 42draftdesigns link above. Either will work fine I'm sure, although heat might be a concern with the high output LEDs; IDK; haven't used them yet.

Aaron, the parking light inside the housing [what you are calling a DRL] is not an H3; it is a BAX 9 S type, or push-and-turn, which is more along the lines of this:
