In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum.

Has anyone used any of these LED Fogs by Diode? I already know the fogs won't help much in light output if anything but just looking for change things a bit cosmetically. They offer both Cool White and Yellow options. I have ordered the trunk, license, backup, foot well / door and glove box LED's from this company and they all work really good but unsure on these LED bulbs.

If you do have these either cool white or yellow please post pictures.....thanks
 
Brighter fogs only serve to reduce night visibility in all weather situations. You're really not even suppose to have your fog lights on in clear weather.
 
I had some of the older style LED fog lights from Diode but the light output was lower than stock. The newer ones look similar to my bright ass reverse LED's so they might be better
 
I'm putting HID 6000K bulbs in mine. I'll let you know how they turn out.:D

The webpage lists no wattage on the bulbs so my concern becomes the heat from the bulbs and possibly melting the housings....:(
 
I put some low voltage 25W 4300K HID's in my G8 GT and they warped/melted the fog light housing a little.. Did the same in my 2011 Kia Optima. No problems what so ever. Thinking about doing some 25W 5000K's in the Genesis. Hopefully wont have a problem with melting.

Got my 10,000k HID in the fog lamps and have run them for hours with no damage to the housing so far.

i thought 10K were more of a purple color.. Those look a lot "whiter" than 10K.
 
Check any buyers guide on Amazon.com for HID and you will see 6000k is white, 8000k is a bit of a blue hue, 10,000k is a bit more of a blue hue.
 
I've installed 8 HID systems from different vendors and 10,000k has always been this color.
