Lumincs or Nokya Yellow Bulbs

Quick question. Which one yall think is the better foglight bulb?? About to place an order, but undecided which way to go. Which one last longer, produces a brighter light etc etc.

i agree. piaa is the best yellow ion bulb. but if u are just looking for the look. the best way (cheapest) is to take a yellow permanent fabric marker and fill in the lens yellow.

Have any reason as to why you call them junk. Luminic's bulbs arent, Ive had my yellow bulbs for almost a year and they havent blown out on me. They look good and above all they light up the road nice. I would recommend them to anyone.

okay. So basically they are both equally good bulbs. Good to know.

PIAA's, are nice. But I cant justify spending $55+ on foglight bulbs, and I was told they are not a deep yellow either.

Yellow film or yellow marker is out of the question for me. Dont like that look at all. Sorry.

they are are junk, just color no usable light unlike piaa or candle power.. just because they dont blow doesnt make them a good bulb..

the Luminics are junk, I had 2 sets of them and they only lasted a few months. Their customer service was also crap. I was very dissapointed with them

I have Nokya yellow ones and they are awesome. Deep yellow (Lexus style
I had them for almost half year now and no problems and for $17 dollars no questions about me getting another set after these are done.

thats just it, these nokya and luminics are ricer lights.. just color... piaa/candle power/phillips/sylvania actually provide usable light.. i tried all of these bulbs, and in the end the name brands owned the cheapies... like they say you get what you pay for..

it is not like yellow hids....but the light is usable......and it is not like our fog lights do that much anyways......i have had the piaa, nokya, apc, candle power as well, and compared the "bigger names" these were very good, and were worth the money much more. Piaa and candles are very good bulb, but when they blew i tried the nokya and they made me just as happy as the other with the light they put out, and were much cheaper....i will probely get them again when these blow
