Default Foglight Replacement Bulbs

What are you guys using for foglight bulbs? I need to get some new ones, and I was wondering if there is anything out there worth getting besides the stockers. Some silverstars?

Just go with an HID kit so you can dial in the color temp. if you don't even have oem hid, just get 2 kits and be done with it.

You need to search my friend...use 9006 bulbs, just like your head lights. You can get superwhite. I have JDM yellow and it looks pretty good.

I know they are 9006. I was just wondering where I can get some whiter ones. I just finished my LS 430 retrofit, and I want to change the foglight bulbs while I am at it.

I run 6000k 9006 hids in my fogs with my ls430 retro in my headlights. It does shoot to the sides wider than the LS beam. Im messing with some D2R 9006 bulbs now to to see if I can keep the light a little lower in the front. The 6000k's match the color of the projectors when they are in the color transition right at the cutoff when you look back at them. I did do a single washer mod with a TSX lens in the projectors though. HID fogs are definately the way to go IMO. Whats up cliffud?

The HIR bulbs do the trick for me. Read up on them in the lighting forum. For $60bucs total, they are a huge "REAL" improvement over stock.

I have clear lenses. I ended up just going over to AutoZone and getting some superwhite bulbs.
