Fog lights? Which provide more light?

I know that a lot of you are using the Polarmg-6's to replace the stock fogs, do those provide a better lower level of lighting? I am looking for something that closely matches the headlights but also provides an ample amout of light. Any suggestions?

I too am looking into replacing those pathetic road lights. The Polargs are 18 watts, while the standard light is 5 watts. This should in turn mean that they would provide ample lighting. In addition, I hae een the polargs comparedto the regular, and it is pretty substantial increase in light. They als match the hedlights quite well. Finally, this may b nitpicking, but I noticed that you saif fog light. The standard light is a driving light. This means that no matter what bulb you put in, it will never accomplish the same thing as a fog. If you want fogs, you can spend about $150 for PIAA Xtreme Whites. They are closer tofogs than the lights on there now.

Exactly, even the 18 watt bulbs don't do anything for visibility, they just look better.

HaHaHa, road lamps, what a joke. All they really are, are marker lamps. Why Acura didn't give us true fog lights I'll never know.
