Yellow fogs???

bimmertt · 03-15-2011, 09:30 PM

where are you all getting the nokya bulbs and how long have they lasted?

I had a set of nokya yellows on my previous car and one bulb blew out after only a few months.

My H8 bulbs were bought from www.e92-lighting.com 2 years back. I ordered new H11 nokya's from ebay for my mtech kit.

Some of these pics look good with yellow. I just spent a $100 bucks to get as far away from yellow as possible lol

going yellow... might as well start filling your window with stickers, and put a dragon one too.

European car company's have been putting yellow fog, and white driving lights in cars way before the Japanese were exporting cars to the US.

Fogs SHOULD be yellow.
The color does reduce the lightoutput, but it also massivly decreases glare which is your main enemy when driving through heavy snow and fog.

So a driver wanting to SEE better will have yellow fogs.
A driver that wants to be seen (EG: Poser) will have ultrawhite 6k+ fogs.

That said..
I´d rather have the fogs replaced by driving lights to increase lightoutput on highbeam then fogs. I can count on one hand the amount of times when I´ve turned of the lowbeam and only run the fogs because of weatherconditions. But having more light on highbeam would definatly help up here during the winter and fall.

Dont mean to bring up a semi old thread but I prefer yellow for functionality. Also if yellow fogs sucked then why do ALMS cars use them and swear by them? I just put in my Hoen Endurance fogs tonight and rock yellow fogs and yellow Angels

I've had yellow Nokya as my angel eyes for nearly 3 years. You just need to install them correctly without touching the bulb or they blow.

Yellow actually serves a function like others mentioned. Nothing wrong with em.
