Title: Yellow fogs?
Post by: suave on January 17, 2012, 12:27:13 pm: Sorry as i know there have been previous threads on this but if you coat your front fogs in yellow is it easily removed again?

Also, is it quite straightforward to apply to the domed shape - do you need to remove the fog light first?

Do i just buy a sheet from them and cut it to fit the fogs or might i need two sheets?

cheers

If you search the forum you should find a 10% discount code I posted (I think it was "fendub" but not 100%)

It's only cheap anyway and very easy to do

Post by: VC on January 17, 2012, 04:27:55 pm: The hyper yellows are 10000% the best on the market and best place to source them tends to be eBay US, stunningly bright, stay cool and when off still make the fogs look yellow, I'll be buying some more

I`m after some NOKYA fog bulbs too but I could only find Amazon selling them.
However they are always out of stock.
Who were you getting them from??
Do you need different bulbs for the projector style fogs?
