Thanks, it is yellow

, I get a lot of attention to my fogs, since there isn't any car with yellow fogs.

If you are worried, purchase some dielectric grease and fill the cavity of the bulb(fog) for added protection.

Paint your fogs and use regular halogens.

***bandit*** · 11-02-2008, 08:55 PM

Just curious..how did you get to the fogs? Did you remove the whole bumper?

If and when my MTEC Super White fogs go out..I might try the yellows but dont feel like taking my whole bumper off

***darksparkz*** · 11-02-2008, 09:00 PM

I have the same Nokya 2500K in my fogs and they've been there for over a year already, I used them in my other car as fogs and there isn't any sign of melting the harness or anything. The fogs look amazing in the fog housing that the Gen6's have with the 2500K color, close to even HID quality.

the yellow nokya's fried one of my harnesses a couple of weeks ago. i had the wire harness replaced by a heavy duty one from luminics to handle the 80watts of power.

I think 80W is too much for your wires. Why not get the PIAA 55W? It's a bit expensive, but safe for your harness.

Good combination BTW!

i have modded 9005 Nokyas(2500K) and they burnt up one of my harnesses. I bought the Nokya high temp harnesses and never looked back. They are holding up like champs!

Actually no, I didn't take the whole bumper off. I just removed the plastic shield from beneath the car (for driver side fog) and reached the bulb from there.But for passenger side there was a barrier ,so I couldn't reach it from that side.I had to unscrew the plastic shield underneath the car, that protects the engine.
