Yellow h7 bulbs

I checked out that link. Is the all-weather bulb just a bit more yellow than the OEM halogen?

Has anyone replaced their own H7 fog bulbs--I think the manual says to take it to the dealer? It took me forever to figure out how to do the rear tail light bulbs--I even had to seek out help from a fellow NAMer with repeated PMs.

I believe so. If you want deep yellow, they have the endurance bulbs used on the 24 races.

I use Nokya yellow bulbs in my fog lights. They're cheap and have worked fine so far.

I use these. They are probably the best amber bulbs out there and they don't cost $80. . . . (they cost $110)

I've never ever ever seen high beams illuminate so well without also creating incredible glare. Awesome, truly awesome bulbs. Everyone that has been with me at night has been overwhelmed by the glare-free brightness.

Ahh yes, that car is so gorgeous with those lights... what do you have on it now?

Edit- oh i see, Nokyas. I'm thinking about getting those. What kind of yellow are they, like selective yellow?
