foglight bulb burnt out...

the foglight bulb for the drivers side burnt out, and i need a replacement. I'm not sure where to go, how are luminics h3 yellow bulbs? or i might be thinking on getting the phillips premium +30 for a replacement. Any good websites that are recommended for the yellow h3 bulbs? does anyone have pics of how the yellow fogs look with the headlights on from the drivers perspective and from the outside view looking towards the headlights and fogs? thanks

There are no yellow bulbs that actually look yellow. I tried some Hella yellow bulbs and they were just slightly yellow.

here is a pic of my car with a "hyperwhite" bulb on the passenger side fog light and a Hella yellow bulb on the driver side:



By comparison, here is what my old QX4 fogs looked like. They were very yellow and looked tight -- like you would see on the Lexus type yellow fogs:





In order to get a nice yellow color you need the capsules on them. I think they are around $30 for a set. Do a little searching in the general maxima section about yellow fogs. IIRC, someone did a recent test with bulbs and the capsules.

edit -- here is the link:

I prefer the green. Green looks nice. EuroDezigns are what I have. h3 6000k. They work very nicely. I'll send a pic later
