The "Extra Night Visibility" sucks much in actual fog...yellow is preferred so you don't blind oncoming traffic...say 3000K or thereabouts.

If you came at me in the fog with your "beautiful white bright" light, you'd see my high beams in self defense.

so far these lights from Amazon are really good

I'm not sure why the lights need to be "pretty". My understanding has been that they help the driver see at night.

3 reasons for white light
they look cool and updated , less strain on eyes
l like them better than the halogen candle lights
take advice or leave it
these particular ones are not a bit blinding

It appears that on my car the low beam is covered my a metal plate unless I am missing something. Can you please advise? I see a perpendicular plastic dust cap that appears to go to the high beam.
