I took these photos last week when in Northern California on our 2975 mile road trip. I drove past this tree for 30 years and never stopped to see it so I thought it was about time. I used the FOGS for driving thru it.

Here are a couple of more shots that use FOGs.

The trailer hitch would not fit :-)

So if I go with the H8 Nokya 2500K Hyper Yellow fog lights on my 11' R56 then I should have no problems correct?

Rob, do you have any pictures of the light output / color? Those are the exact bulbs I've been thinking about getting!

my fog lights

So I really couldn't get a good picture tonight but I hope that's somewhat okay since it is SUPER foggy outside right now. But if you need a better view of just the fog lights itself, let me know and I will post some tomorrow night in clear weather.

So for anyone still looking for lights to match the Xenon's

-PIAA Xtreme white 194 Are the ones to get if you are not going the LED route with the Day Time Running lights

- AVOID the Hoen W5W City Lights, They are still yellowish.

-Hoen XenonMatch Fogs are a great match
I know it's an old post, but I just ordered the same setup...

PIAA Xtreme White 194 & the Hoen XenonMatch H8s to get all the forward facing lights roughly the same color temperature.

Again, I'm sure this has been done to death, but the PIAAs arrived today. They really do match the xenon headlights, nicely.

Do you guys know the part number for the connector that clips onto the light itself? Somebody I asked to help with mine broke the things you press to get it off.

edit: I found it: 61136907388

Has anybody had any experience with Lamin-x covers? (in yellow)
http://www.lamin-x.com/Mini-Cooper-S...-p/mn107-1.htm

I'm debating ordering these or going for yellow bulbs, for fogs only. Is there a consensus on Hoen Endurance vs. Nokya Hyper Yellow?
