question regarding lights

i have an '04 X. i recently got the clear corners and they look great! on another note, i turned my headlights on today and noticed that one of my "city lights" (i think thats what they're called..) was not working. i guess it blew out or something. now i HAVE to change my lights lol, so i was just reading up on how to do it. also, now i figure that since i'll be opening up the plastic wall to access the lights, i might as well change my ugly yellow stock fog lights that make the whole lighting look bad lol.

the question here is regarding what bulbs to use for the "city lights" and the fog lights. i don't want anything that's crazily blue, just something that doesn't suck like the stock yellow color lol, since those just ruined the look of the HID's, in my opinion.

any suggestions are welcome!

thanks!

The Piaa LED 194 bulbs are nice for the city lights. You can get them in white/white, white/blue, and blue/blue.

As for the fog lights, Piaa also makes some nice HID look bulbs that seem to be the best match for the 4300k oem headlights. They won't be spot on but will look a lot better.

hey, thanks for the response

i got the 194's for my clear corners. the guy said they're "superwhite", but have sort of a slight bluish color to it lol. if i put those in my city lights, would my lights look good? (and legal, lol) the clear corners right now definitely don't match my headlights, so if they're the same color, wouldn't it look slightly weird?

Are you trying to find a city light to match your HIDs? If so you are not going to, plus the city lights are very hard to see with the headlights on.

no no, not trying to find them so they match the lights. i just don't want them to stand out when the headlights are on hehe. the 194's i have are slightly bluish. if i use those same bulbs for my city lights, they won't be too noticeable? i don't my HIDs on and the 194's bluish light to show as well lol, would look weird i think. but since you say they won't be too noticeable when the HIDs are on, i'll give it a shot.

as for the fogs, where can i buy the bulbs from? would they have them in performance stores, such as the same store i got my 194's from?
