Gen6 want to replace fog light for 07 camry se v6

hey guys,
i was wondering if any of you have replaced the fog lights on a 07 camry se on your own before? i want to put in higher k bulbs for all my front lights but am afraid to mess with the fogs unless someone has had success before.

moreover, which brand/color/kelvin rating have ppl used on their 07 camrys, any recommendations are welcome.

thanks,
aq

Wow, looks brighter!

Just remember, the thing with xenon gas-filled bulbs are that they will start dimming faster in comparison to halogens. So if you like the bulbs, I suggest you buy another set.

replacing the fog lights are easy. just look under the front end of your car. Pull out the clips and unscrew the screws. from there, just replace the fog lights like any headlights. They are h11. I would go with yellow fogs and 4300k lowbeams.

4300ks should be good enough.

I would go with 4300K for fog and 5000K for low beam.
