H8 fog light bulbs
Thinking of changing the fog light bulbs in my 08 TLS. I did a search and it looks like most people are happy with MTEC or Nokya bulbs. Which one will you prefer? I am looking to get the superwhite bulbs.

I'm running Nokya H8's.
Go with Hyper Yellows, just my
.
Superwhite bulbs might "look" good, but you loose functionality. With the Hyper Yellow bulbs, you get a nice contrast from your HID headlights, and they will actually function to help you see in fog, whereas the superwhite bulbs will only serve to hamper your visibility.

Well, I've never seen the Hyper Yellow fogs on lenses that have also been tinted yellow also...please post pics!
If you have an '04-'06 TL, you have to go under the hood to reach into the headlight assembly and unplug the foglights.
If you have an '07 + TL, you have to go under the front wheel wells by taking off the wheel well clips and bending the lining back, and you can reach toward the front of the car where the foglight housing is. Just unplug the socket when you reach the foglights!

its true Nokya H8 Artic Whites do match the HID the best (6000k d2s).......
But there is ZERO output, so it's basically for looks.
I don't want to put HID kit in the foggies, I just want a normal pure white bulb or bright yellow...if anyone has suggestions please post
(again..no hid kits,lol)

Pretty sure both the Nokya and Stock draw 35W. Should be good right?

GUARANTEED, 2007 and 2008 are H8.
Joey, I've got pics posted somewhere. I'll dig 'em up.
