what color fog light bulbs

well i found some 98% xenon bulbs or somethin at wal-mart for 19 bucks but they don't come in H3 size so i was wondering what color bulbs you guys would buy for your fogs. should i try to match the color of the wal-mart ones or should i try to find some blue bulbs or yellow bulbs? i'd kinda like to get yellow ones i just don't know what that would look like. i know yellow will probably work better too. but Blue would look cool. any suggestions, comments?

Yellow is the most effective color for fog lights, when you're using them for actual fog, and most people don't. As for the look, they look... well... yellow. Blue is complete rice. What's wrong with ordinary bulbs?

well i think just a slight blue would look kinda cool, i'd like to upgrade the fog bulbs with the headlight bulbs since the headlight bulbs will be whiter and brighter, oh and i drive with my fogs on all the time so i don't know if i'll be able to handle yellow

Just like the man said....get PIAA superplasmas....those are the only decent light I have seen as far as PIAA goes....I tried there 9004 hyperwhites and they were yellow so that was crap but that is also off topic.....

go for the PIAA Superplasmas......they are WELL worth it IMHO if you have really clean lenses

Plus the PIAA won't burn out as fast as the **** they sell at walmart ( Trust me...i work at walmart at the return desk ) and the PIAA you can get at like $40 a set if you shop around online.

From what I remember anways the H3's they sell at my walmart (xenon type) are 18.96 a piece so PIAA are definately the way to go
