Yellow fogs

After much research about yellow fogs (bulbs or film)I think I am going with the Nokya 9006 55w bulbs. Since someone said their Texons melted there harmess. 9006 is the right bulb correct? Any complaints with the Nokyas? The Nokya's are $30 and the Texons are $20 so I figure you get what you pay for.

yep, 9006 is the correct size. Good call on doing bulbs instead of film, film tends to discolor and fade. If u have the cash though, do a hid conversion looks sweet and easy to do with plug and play kits

Id look into the HID conversion as well. Less heat and longer lasting bulbs and better light output

I'd say stick with the halogen bulbs. The hid's are fairly expensive and you really don't need them for light output since the factory hid's are so bright. I only use mine to look a little different sometimes or when it's raining/crappy outside. Have a look at a few pics...they look great!

I'd say do the H.i.D conversion also. In the interim buy the yellow bulbs , but in the future go for the 3000K yellow h.i.d fogs.

Damn those are tight! Looks so good with our SSM! I just picked some up in the mean while and if I run into extra money I'll get the HID fogs. Thanks guys for all your info, I never make a choice without asking you guys first!

One question instead of making a thread, Where can i get a set of "Stock" fog lights for a 99. Dont they put them on Inspires? And all these places selling stock ones say they are for 99-2003 but clearly they will not fit the 99 because the bumper is different the the 2003. Thanks

Yes they are on Inspires of the same year, however they will not fit your USDM bumper, only JDM. Closest fit for our American models is the 02 Accord Fogs I think.

Take a look at this thread and search for the other threads I have on fogs for more yellow fogs.

Here is some pics of my rockblocker yellow fog film. I dont think you can beat this for 20 bucks shipped. They look awesome in the day and at night, and I get so many compliments on them. Eventually I will want to put yellow bulbs in just to make it a bit more yellow, but they are wonderful!!!







Notice mt PAX headlight is fogged up. I think I've fixed that problem though for the most part!

Is it fogged or hazy? Are you going to do the wetsanding. I have tried so much and I think me last resort is wet sanding.

It was fogged. It was pretty bad after I cleared my headlights, but it has cleared up, and it doesn't get as bad. It only fogs if I go through the car wash. Eventually I will re-seal it.

I have the same Nokya Bulbs in my Fogs. but i have the 70w 9006s though its the stage II Bulbs i love them. actually i have the NRG 9006 super whites but they burnt out in like 6 months or so. so i put in the yellows and they are awsome. ill try and get some pics up later. but definatly a awsome buy plus its cheap. i was always thinking about the HIDs but i think the bulbs will suffice!!!
