Which JDM Fogs...

asdflkijd · 10-06-2008, 01:44 AM

I have Mtech kit so I need the 9006/HB4 bulbs and I am trying to decide between NOKYA or Luminics.. For those of you that have these or have seen them in person or even on the forums, which one do you think is better? They are both around the same price wise.. Take your pick!

NOKYA Hyper Yellow Pro Halogen Light Bulb (9006/HB4) [$25]

Luminics JDM Yellow (9006) Headlight Bulbs [$28]

btw, I didnt opt for PIAA's because they are like double the price...

I assumed they were still for sale since nobody said they PM or pending

my bad, if I don't like em I'll give them to you for cheap if you want, but since you got HID's I don't think you'd wanna be playing around with that weak shit

asian010 · 10-06-2008, 09:18 PM

Nokya tends to be over the OEM watt consumption so it automatically throws error codes.

Sam12345 · 10-08-2008, 02:31 AM

ew wtf? i thought people change there lights to get rid of the yellow? but you change it to make it more yellow.

fogs are different... Bright yellow increases the vision in heavy fog/ rain, and I live where it rains like every other day.

+100. Fogs arent much different. I mean sure people that change their headlight bulbs to 6000k...8000k will get a cool looking color, but the higher the kelvin, the less output. Not to mention yellow is the only color that actually penetrates through fog.
