PIAA ION h3 yellow fogs installed today!! pics!

Guys, these bulbs are defintely yellow... I mean alot yellower than HELLA! And I am not sure who said if you look at the lense and it would not be yellow they are full of it! Look at the pics. The lense is solid yellow when turned on. Looks like a LEXUS! These seem to have some serious light output as well for stock wattage.

Anyways, here is the link to all the pics...enjoy!

So that would be these right: http://store.yahoo.com/rodi/xxxpiah3.html (first one on list, H3 Ion Crystal). Also I wanted to know if I can replace the fogs on my 4th gen ('97) with these as well?

Re: PIAA ION h3 yellow fogs installed today!! pics!

Looks great in the garage. I have a 4th gen with the Hanabi HID kit and stock fogs - anything would be better than the stock "color". Have you driven at night with them, how do they illuminate at a distance (still yellow at a distance or does it fade to white)? Also, I'm assuming these are stock wattage so I don't have to upgrade the harness?

Well i drove in the dark this morning, and you can tell if its solid dark yellow everywhere. But my HIDs basically drowned it out where its hard to see.

Rider your fogs look bluer and brighter than your headlights. Are those the Super Plasma Blue that everyone seems to like?
