Nokya Bulbs

Has anyone had experience with using Noyka bulbs to replace the standard Halogen headlights and the fog lamps? Specifically, I am looking at using the Hyper Yellow H8's for the fog lamps and the Cosmic White H4's for the headlights.

Thanks -

Just get these or a similar kit offering 3000K for the yellow look you want.
They will provide much more visible and useful light than the nokya's...
people will try to argue going this route because they aren't in a projector lens and the light will not be focused and it will blind other drivers.

Well, i have 4300k in my fogs, and because the driving light section cuts off the top section of the fog housing, it doesn't blind oncoming drivers, and there is plenty of focused lighting in a 'foglight' area infront of the car. Plug and play with no issues. Make sure you ask for the special capacitor that they supply for free (not sure about this link i sent you but most of the ebay companies do)... the capacitor connection they send you prevents flickering in newer cars like ours.

Good luck.

I have H8 Nokyas as well. Love the way they look. Dont really care about how much more they illuminate over stock since it never ventures from the city lights. Had a strange fitment issue with one of them, the inner plastic housing was warped and would not fit correctly. I just too a dremel and fixed that little issue.
