I have never ordered from them, I just know they carry MTEC.

Thanks, Skeleton, for all the links. I was leaning towards the MTECs becasue they get such good reviews in terms of their color match to the stock HIDs. I'd love to buy Alan's 6000K dual HID setup, but I have to watch what I'm spending on mods...
If there are other good matches, I'll certainly check them out, but I don't remember coming across in my searches any other brand that got the praise the MTECs did. I might just have to trust ebay on this one, but I will check out all those links.

Those MTEC's are nice. I have a question though. I just got G35 sedan and noticed that even if I have my fogs off there is maybe a 5 watt bulb inside that remain on. Do you guys just pull them out try to match them also? What is the best inexpensive H4 lights to match the HID's and what temp should I shoot for in terms to match the factory HID's for any bulb.

As far as the H4 bulb goes, an inexpensive option would be the MTEC’s. They are much less expensive then the PIAA’s. Color temp should be somewhere in the range of 4200k – 5000k. The MTEC Racing Halogen is rated at 4350k.

Does anyone have any suggestions on YELLOW fog lights? The only brands that I can seem to find are POLARG and PIAA.
PIAA H4 Ion Yellow Bulb $100.00
POLARG Pure Yellow Series $60.00
Both can be purchased at Autodynamic.com
Anyone have pictures to display with this setup?
headlamp (stock beam)
fog light (aftermarket yellow - one of the above)
clearance light (POLARG/PIAA - amber bulb)
??? Please help ???

MTEC bulbs are super white colored bulbs based at 4,350K. An HID is around 5,000K. These bulbs are the next closest item towards an HID lighting system.
