Anyone using the Philips H11 CrystalVision bulb for fogs?

I'm looking to replace the warm yellow look of the fogs with something more white in color. These seem to be a cheap alternative to HID kits. Just want to know if anyone has or is currently using them and how they look compared to the stock bulb.

I slapped in a couple of EuroDezigns HID 8400's fogs and they match the projector zenon's color quite well. Much better that the factory color.

These bulbs are 30 bucks and you can get the HID kits for 40 bucks and there is nothing that compares to HID in my opinion

Ok, do you have link or can recommend some that will work with the Max? Nothing too expensive hopefully.

Here it is. Get the blue 8500K. (2) fogs per pack for about $25. They will match your headlights just fine. Simple install from behind. Use gloves!!!
