What fog bulbs and turn signals are you using?

Aesthetics · 08-08-2016, 07:49 PM

Looking for a pair of LED's or other fog bulbs to match my 6k white low beams. I found some but they are expensive costing $60+ just for bulbs. I'd also like to get rid of the amber tint on the turn signal bulb (but still flash orange!)

Whats your setup? Pics would be nice

I don't have any pics of mine, but I use the GP thunder 7500k bulbs which are like $15 a pair. Have been going strong for 2+ years now.

Here is a thread with some comparison pics on halos, but should give you an idea:

I run the HPB xenon/HID Canbus fogs, 5000k I think, or 4300k. I also run all their LED blinkers, indicators/markers, turn (white) and backup lights. A great halogen option, and in my opinion way better than the GP Thunder is the HOEN xenon match or yellow, xenon match matches the stock xenon headlight perfect, if you chose not to go HID. Also watch your light assemblies, some are well suited for HID, and some are not and run to hot or the lights sit so close to the lens that it looks stupid, lens gets burnt/darkened, and/or function is compromised.

Also, I did enough so I just coded out the bulb check, BUT have the wife do a sweep around the car 4-6 times daily to check that they all work!

That sounds really nice!

I want to see how LED bulbs look like for fogs as I might go that route

I just ordered Weisslicht H11 LED bulbs from Bimmian. I can report back once I get them in the car and have a chance to take a pic.

the dope steez · 08-15-2016, 04:47 PM

Just bought some Sylvania ZXE's based on reviews and the fact that they look like they will match the stock xenons well... I am installing them on Thursday at which point I'll post some pics. If they look good I'll replace my DRLs with them as well.

Yes I'm putting them in my fogs, but if you didn't like the $60 price you found then you probably won't like the $85 I paid.

rsyed07 · 08-16-2016, 10:19 AM

I wish I had fogs

ferocity02 · 08-16-2016, 11:14 AM

I bought "GP Thunder II 7500K H11 Xenon Light Bulb 55W White" to match my factory xenon bulbs. It's a pretty close match! And they were only $13 on eBay.

Do you have any pics? I've always disliked the tinted bulbs since you can see the tint from the outside

Installed the Sylvania zxe bulbs today. Not even worth taking a picture of and they were back in the box for return 30 seconds later.
On the other hand, my lux v6's are AWESOME. now to find a way to code the angel eyes to be the DRLs...

I great halogen option for fog lights and daytime running lights for pre LCI's is a Phillips Diamond bulb.

Even if you had an LCI, I'd still consider it.

They are 5k and will match your lights to a T.
