Hi Guys,
I was planning to buy a new set of fog lights. But I'm confused about the color of the fog light to choose. In a post, somebody have suggested yellow light is better but some of my friends suggest white is better.
Can anyone please advise me on this, it would be great if you could share your personal experience using those bulbs.
Thanks in advance.

My Genesis Sedan had Yellow ones and it provided less glare. However, I did not like the Yellow Lenses on the car (It was Silver). Try to get lights that have clear lenses, but Yellow Bulbs or better, LEDs.

I've had both yellow and white in the past, and personally prefer white. That said, it can be a real PITA to get white fog light bulbs that match the color of your low beam bulbs.

It depends somewhat on whether you are using the fog lights as general purpose aux/cornering lights, or actually as fog light in thick dense fog. The reasoning for yellow fog lights is that it contains no (or less) blue light, which has a higher tendency to scatter. This is why day time sky is blue. In reality though, the difference in fog light applications isn't as significant, as long as the fog lights are mounted low. If you run big Hella Rallye 4000 fog lights mounted up high (like on rally race cars), then yeah, yellow would help cut through fog (and dust, in Rally racing) better.
