PIAA'S, LUMINICS, NOKIA'S Bulbs?

I been searching but I can't decide yet? I want Both light output and to be yellow enough?? Also I will be using them alot. I like using my fogs all the time so one that can be reliable would help too. lol

Also If I get LED city lights would the heat from the fogs burn them out?

Out of those, I'd say the PIAA Plasma ION Yellows. I do offer PIAA products along with Halo Lighting. That is a newer company out of Japan. If you get me the type of bulb and your zip code, I will be more then happy to get you some pricing

PIAA is overpriced and inferior, IMO.

I've used both Luminics JDM Yellow and PIAA Plasma Ion Yellow bulbs for my fogs. The Luminics are by far more yellow. THe Nokyas look good, too.

I'd say Nokya = Luminics > PIAA

Depends which LEDs you go with. Make sure it has a warranty as most LEDs typically don't like heat. SMD LEDs, on the other hand, seem to produce a relatively large amount of heat themselves and should be able to withstand the heat from the fogs.

The city lights do not turn on WITH the fogs, but they will be on when the fogs are on. The city lights are part of your parking lights. Your parking lights are on when your headlights are on. Your headlights must be on in order for the fogs to be on.

Make sense?

Yea lol. Damn that sucks. B/C I was planning on putting 6000k LED for the city lights but that will look FUGLY with the yellow fogs lol. You think going amber will help or I just shouldnt put a bulb at all if I'm going for the yellow look. Also Your final answer would be Nokia or Luminics for both output and color? Please help I want to order them now lol.
