fog light options - Toyota Yaris Forums

charleschia1986 · 11-12-2009, 08:57 AM

hi guys,

i am thinking of upgrading my fog light into White beam light. i taught of HID but is way too expensive for me.

so i decided to replace it by a 7000K or 7500K bulb instead.

i found two options on ebay but i m not sure which one to choose, may i get some advices from u guys. Which one is Whiter and which is is Brighter?
Or is there any better options out of this two?

Options:
-NOKYA H11 Arctic White Head Light Bulb 55W 7000k S1 12v
-GP Thunder 7500K H11 Xenon/Plasma Quartz Bulb 55W

here is da ebay link:
Nokya: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...K%3AMEWAX%3AIT

GP thunder: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...K%3AMEWAX%3AIT

thanks guys...

nokya doesn't come with 7500k

do u think GP's 7500k will be brighter than da nokya's 7000k?

regards.

If you want FOG's to see with, the lower the K the brighter it will be. Anything above 6k will start to look blue, anything above 10-12k will be more purple.

For me I used 6k for headlights and fog's, and they look great! Wish I chose 5K though just because its probably brighter(should be tech wise), but the clear color/very slight hint of blue is nice.
What I said is based on HID's not halogens like the linsk your provided, but the same still stands, kindof. And tinting the bulb decreases light output a bit as well.
