What bulbs to get white fogs?
#12
I got the LED bulbs, and they were junk even from an ebay US seller. One would just flicker. Plus, when the fogs are on with the LEDs, the "high beam indicator light" in the cluster lights up dimly. They also looked bad because my fogs are very chipped up, and the dim LEDs just showed that.
Needless to say, I'm just going to put some stock bulbs in or go back to HIDs.

None of the current drop-in LED replacements will work as well as the stock size Halogen bulb.
They don't properly use the stock reflector. True, there are some brighter than others, but none will retrain the same bright spread as the stock bulb.
Typically, for marker and brake lights, it will be close enough. That is not so for forward lighting (headlights & fog lights). None of the current drop-in LED replacements will work as well as the stock size Halogen bulb in the stock reflectors or projectors.

Hey, dude: If you haven't done so already, you may consider simply aiming your HID foglights down lower. Each one has an adustment screw, and you can aim them low enough that the light literally projects on the ground a few feet from the front of the car, if you want to go extreme.

The various blue tinted bulbs don't last very long. At least if they are Silverstars.
