Default Foglight color

Looking to change the color of my foglights to yellow. Anyone know a way to go about this using the stock housing?

Ick, why yellow? I know it's good for night road coursing, and not as bad on your eyes, but man it's just ugly t me.. I'm personally looking for an HID conversion for the fogs, s I can drive with JUST fogs..

Yeah I want them because of thier ability to help me see better in fog...

I do have an ACDelco DRL module hooked up to my yellow fog lights on my GP.

I'm not going to go on the HID band wagon.... I find the headlights on these cars just fine.

IAnyone have any ideas to how to change the color the fog lights? Maybe a company that makes a yellow bulb?

Actually, something that may work is some yellow parafin film. Or simply some yellow slide material, and cut it to the size you need. They tend to be heat resistant. Otherwise, check Summit or Jegs. Sorry I can't be more help.

A few companies make yellow bulbs. PIAA makes yellow ones so do others. Lots on ebay. If I ever would change to yellow fogs I'd just switch to a 3000k HID kit for the fogs. But you don't want HID's so just find a set of yellow bulbs on ebay thats your only option really. And even with a non-yellow HID kit in the fogs (4300k or higher) I still wouldn't go around driving with just your fogs on at night, Semper91-RS. Not a good idea.

Thanks guys. Its not so much the brightness but the color that matters as far a fog light is concerned. I think anything more would be considered a driving light?... Being on LI everything here is lit to some degree so I guess that why I feel the way I do about hids. you guys living in America have a different story to tell.

If you lived here all your life youd know hehe ...LOL it's a kind of VERY secluded culture we got over here.

Some people here actually think that NYS is just the city and LongIsland. Some of your more ditzy people think even worse....Its not because they are stupid per say, it's because we pretty much do have everything here so ther is no reason to leave the island! Plus the traffic makes it damn near impossible....We used to have a 1/4 mile track but there are now houses over it....dairy queens and sonics we dont have eiather, but we got everything else. We still have the riverhead circle track for the spectator drags and such.....
