You do know that if yiu use them as they should be used ie driving in FOG, then a white/blue is not the best. These will give off a lot of glare when driving. What is actually needed is a bulb/lamp with a yellowish colour.

I really recommend it actually. I use mine alongside my full beam all the time. Its nice to be able to see all angles of the roads :)

Agreed, they're completely useless in fog. Especially since you need to cut out the 'diffuser' to fit them.

I think mine have been on twice. Both times to take photos. They're not really any use to light up the road either (but I don't like idiots who drive about with fogs on when it's not foggy)

Completely agree. They make it worse in fog haha.

Thats also a massive pet hate of mine , winds me up something rotten. If you want to use them when its not foggy do what i do and use them with full beam. No harm done !

But the white light looks much nicer :)

I had a feeling that's reason in changing them. I must admit from the outside, pure white headlights and Foglights do look a lot better than yellow ones. [B)]

I'm guessing for HID Fog lights you don't need to worry about washers an/or levelling or any legal issues with them.
