Instead of buying new yellow bulbs why not give this stuff a try.

I'm sure it would be pretty easy to apply,just cut to fit over you fog lenses. Pretty cheap and easy to remove if you don't like it.

Laminex is shady. You can get it from the source instead of 3rd party at ricochet.

I guess no one found the bulbs that mimic the yellow on the IS/GS/RX etc.? I remember the PIAA ion crystals were close but still not the same.

I just picked up a couple of Sylvania H3 100w bulbs, but when I went to install them I noticed one of my fogs was all corroded, so I have to get a new lens. But now that you all say the Narva 85w bulb may be too much, then the 100w is definitely too much, eh? Or is that for the 97 + fogs only? And btw, what kind of bulbs do the IS and GS use in their fogs?

The GS4 and the IS have a yellow refretor inside. No light bulb is ever going to be able to produce that color unles you go with yellow HIDs

White if your going HID all around. Without a doubt. Yellow adds fatigue for long night drives. You should want to immitate natural daylight.

I dunt kno if that's true, but the yellow penetrates fog and bad weather conditions better than pure white light. Which is the reason for fog lights. So for me, I'd stick with yellow even with the HIDs. Besides I think it looks better.

6k HIDs with GE Gold bulbs, I also have the Philips weather visions but these seem to work good enough for now so I haven't tried puttin in the philips weather vision bulbs yet. ALso, the GE gold bulbs are cheaper than the PIAA Ions I believe, $16/pair for GE and $22/pair for philips all weather
