You'll need an H11 bulb and you won't get much yellow from a tinted halogen so you may want to consider adding yellow vinyl to the fog cover.

Yes, those will work.

I'm not speaking from experience but from what I've read on the forums. I believe others have swapped out their stock bulbs for yellow ones and weren't happy with the results. Adding the yellow vinyl makes it much more yellow and protects the fog light cover.

You can also consider HID 3k fogs but they're not plug and play...it will require more effort.

I know people who bought the cheep knock-off bulbs on Amazon, eBay, and the like and melted their wires. Those fake bulbs are not regulated, and often they pull a lot more wattage than they say and give it off as heat. Also, you may get soem with yellow glass, that still look like regular halogens when lit.

I personally use these guys: http://www.piaa.com/store/c/21-Autom...?Attribs=68+43

They cost more, but are a quality product and won't melt your wiring harness. They are also quite yellow. Had them on my 95 TL and now my 09 and have been very happy with them.

I had Hoen Endurance yellow bulbs for a while. Swapped them out because it ultimately gave me 3 different color variations from the lights from my front end and just didn't like the look (White High beams, orange turn signals, yellow fog lights).

I also have the Hoen's that others have mentioned above. The color is perfect and I've been running them for about 2 years with no issues
