Question Lighting Question?

What is the best bulb for getting that whitish blue lighting that looks so good? And where is the best place to get them, can they be found at a local shop like auto zone etc. Is it posseble to do this as well with the fog lights? I dont want to switch to projectors or anything I just want to buy bulbs for this if possible? Thanks

The most common change is to Silverstars or Silverstar Ultras. They have a very white, slight bluish tint. They can be found at auto part stores and some sporting goods stores as well.

Silverstars are a nice upgrade if you are not going with HIDs. the 893 silverstar bulb will fit in the factory fog light. The only difference is the clip won't lock but the bulb fits in tight.

I have Silverstars in my headlights and fog lights right now. I love them, but still don't compare to HIDs
