Ok so.... I'm stuck between getting hid fog lights or nokya yellow lights. Feedback pls??????? :P

I have HID 3000K from HID extra. They work well and a are quite bright but it depends on what you are looking for. If you want people that are looking at your car to see a deep yellow, then I would go with the Nokya. The HID light does not have much color to it when you are looking at the light on the car. The light it puts out is a very obvious yellow though. when you see it hit the road.

HIDs! http://www.ddmtuning.com/products/101/

johnsad1 has it right. I have the nokyas for my drl's and 3000k for fogs.

yea i saw ur pictures nd i like the look of the hids. nd i was thinkin of gettin leds for my DRLs but i think im gona lean over to the nokyas for those... dono yet... lol

dookimonsta

that product comes with the ballast nd the bulbs rite?

MrOtocinclus

I say go for the yellows! They work extremely well in rainy/foggy conditions, plus IMHO they look better than HID (for fogs, anyway).

dookimonsta

sigh... thats wut i meant... cuz they look nice lol
wut how bright r ur hids? r they stock cuz they look so much more blue than mine... unless its just ur camera

Johnsad1

Dooki, if you get the kit it will come with ballasts, bulbs, and wiring harnesses.

MrOtocinclus

HIDs are stock, only the fogs are different. They're PIAA yellow bulbs, btw.

that link for the ddm hid kit si excatly what i have for my fogs.

and i say, only go for led drl if u dont use ur highbeam. i switched mine back to nokya and sold the leds. lol

I have yellow Nokya's and they look great! Whats funny is the shop that sells me HID kits and see them all the time thought my Yellow fogs were HID's!!

Jonnie5

u think i will have any problem with my nokya yellow fogs?? because both my fog light lenses are cracked... fml... sometimes condensation gets inside... so far it hasn't affected the stock bulbs at all

UNEVAKNO

If no moisture is getting inside then you are fine but I would eventually replace them. Until then rub a very thin layer of clear silicone caulk over the crack.

Anyone have any pics of 3000K HIDs (preferably DDM's, but I'll take anything) in the fogs? Front/side/ground pics?

Sorry if I'm kinda threadjacking, but I didn't want to start a new thread and thought you guys could help me.
I'm about to buy new foglights for my car, and I have no idea what to do.
I want them to be either matching or slightly more bright white/blue then the stock lowbeams.
Should I get HIDs or LEDs or what?
And also, I noticed some of them have stuff like ballasts and stuff? what's all that for? thanks!

The "search" function on the forum can be your friend but in a nutshell:
- Hoen Xenonmatch H11 bulbs are an extremely close match to stock HID/Xenon headlights. I'm sure others will have other brands they prefer, but Hoen has worked well for me. If you go HIDs, somewhere around 4000K-4500K will most closely match your HID lowbeams. If you want to go more blue, 6000K. DDM Tuning is one manufacturer of inexpensive HID kits (where I'm ordering mine from); I've several friends who've used DDM successfully.
- I've never seen LED lights actually used for anything more than decoration, so I can't comment. I'm ordering a set of HID foglights myself right now, to try something new.
- Ballasts are needed for HIDs.

Here is a fellow forum member's PIAA yellow fogs:


And here is my HID Extra 3K Fogs:

Wow, the HIDs seem much more glare-y...

^ They are also brighter, in that picture I still had my yellow overlay, no longer have the yellow overlay on 'em.
