I recently got them, and did alittle research into the best ones.
I got the Nokya Hyper Yellow 9006, off ebay for like $20.00
They look fantastic, I don't have any pictures yet. But I'm sure other members will throw some up

Those are sexy....I dont want to get HID's though so I'm looking for 9006 yellow bulbs. Should I spend the arm and a leg for the PIAA Ion Crystal?

You can also consider Polargs. I have those and they are nice and bright and a little cheaper then PIAA.

i did the yellow fogs 3 years ago
ended up going back to stock after the bulbs started blowing more times than the hookers in Hunts Point.

Sure you don't want HID fogs? I know they are more expensive, but they sure do look good if you ask me. I love the light output with my HID fog setup.

Click here for more pics on my install and the lights. Good luck on your choice!

Wait....so 9005's will fit in our fog lights? Then why do they even say 9006 if you get better output on 9005's??

with slight mods they work just fine... I believe since the top of the 9006 bulb is painted, you loose about 10-20% brightness.

i'm a little confused about which bulbs to get now. if 9005 and 9006 are interchangeable, then why don't they say that. and if you get more brightness with 9005, then why don't more people go with that?

they are regular halogen bulbs so no ballast is required. On a side note i have yellow fogs and high beams.....and my fogs are more yellow than high beams....bulbs are the same brand....i think it's because the 9006 bulbs have i guess yellow paint on the tip of the bulbs.....

Yeah, ballasts are for HID setups only. There are many different brands of halogen "non-HID" bulbs that you can get for very little cost. The halogens are direct replacements as long as you get 9006 style bulbs. HIDs are a complete systems.

I've heard some folks say the yellow halogen bulbs have not lasted long, or the color fades out over time. Some had great luck. I went with HID since I wanted bright light and typically, the bulbs should last at least 3000 hours or more. Halogens don't have the lifespan of HID simply because of it's design and low heat they generate. 35 watts for HID vs 55/65/100 watts for halogen. If you just want yellow lights in your fogs, the halogens are all you need. If you want farther, wider and much brighter intense yellow light, go with HID....

I'll try to find a picture of them when they are on. I just changed a bulb tonite. 20 bucks from www.rockblocker.net. VERY VERY VERY happy with them - and I get soooo many compliments on them! I'd definately recommend them!
