Default LED Yellow Fog Bulbs

Anyone using these fog bulbs from iJDMToy?

http://store.ijdmtoy.com/H11-9005-90...0w-cob-fog.htm

I decided to switch it up from all matching headlights, and fogs 5K HID in both. The issue now is my new 3k fogs look great, but they are too dull for my taste. Looking for options without having to use yellow overlays.

Had these IPF for a while. They are exactly what the name says Deep Yellow, no overlays.

Looking online these look promising. Unless the pics were photoshoped for marketing. How's the light output? I had Putcos before. The light output was horrible.

It's hard to say how much light output they give, these are not HIDs just regular H11 bulbs. Had some cheap yellow bulbs before that gave no light at all, ditched them the next day. Then bought pair of Osram Fog Breakers, these were ok just didn't like the lemony yellow coming from them. Finally came across the IPFs and I love the rich deep yellow they produce. Had them on for almost a year, no problems at all and I'm finally happy with the way they look, especially at night.

If you want better output, HIDs are the way to go.

3k HIDs here. They're so cheap and safer (if using a dedicated wiring harness for them).

I run the plug-n-play HID kits with anti-flickers (was too lazy to run a hard wire system to the battery). No problems except one of my ballasts died on me but I got both of them replaced by the manufacturer for free.

I'm finally happy with my HID fogs. They do take awhile to break in, but they are more like a banana yellow. Depending on the angle that you view them from. Overall the yellow is still nice. When I pass through areas that have glass buildings. I can see the yellowness. It looks better than most kits I've seen on other vehicles out in my area.

I did look at subieled.com they seem to have some nice LED's

Is there any way to disable the low beams while keeping the fogs on?
On my 07 Focus, I simply pulled the fuse for the daytime running headlights so my fogs worked with the parking lights
