Need better Fog Light Bulbs - Help
The fact that the fog lights look so 'yellowish' compared to my HID's is driving me insane.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what kind of bulbs would look a little better? Anyone have pics of what they've done with their fog lights?
Thanks,

I've got the hoen xenonmatch. They're pretty close. The only thing is that the bulbs are blue coated so the reflectors look bluish during the day when the lights are off.

Do your fogs look 'bluish' when the lights are off?

BG, it looks like he's selling them. Wish it was made of aluminum instead of plastic.

I like the contrasting difference between the HIDs and the fogs. I think it makes the HIDs stand out more, especially if you replace the fogs with a yellower bulb. $0.02

JUST changed my bulbs out this weekend. Looks AWESOME! I'll post pics this weekend after I wash my baby.
SC-ed, did you change your marker lights as well? (the little guys next to the headlights)?

I went with the ones Dynamic recommended: http://www.hoen-usa.com/
Ordered them from the website and they showed up pretty fast. This is an easy mod that you'll REALLY like. (assuming you dislike the color difference as much as I did...)

Red LEDs for the interior. Chrome for the turn signals.
