Useless yellow fog lights
Are there any better after market fog lights for 2.5 TL? I was over this foggy mountain on I77 in NC and I must say the yellow foglights are useless! couldn't see a thing with them. I decided not to use them at all since driving without them was bettter!

thats crazy, I think they worked wonders. When you put them on, they catch the side of the roads. If you turn your headlights on, then your fogs, you see the huge difference.

Ya we've had some bad fog too. I mean sure PIAA aftermarket are great, I had some on my Accord, they were insanely bright. But ya the stock fogs on the TL are great!

You should make sure they're aimed correctly. Fog lights work by projecting light under the fog bank. Since our fogs are mounted at the same level as the head lights, some people make the mistake of aiming both of them the same way.
You should aim them as low as they can go. If correctly done, they won't illuminate anything above knee level (assuming you're standing about three feet away from the front of the car).

he probably has his foglights aiming high while his headlights are aiming real low
