Fog Light H1 Bulb Question
Hi, I bought set of H1 8000k (they called) ebay bulb for my fog light
I installed them but its not blue at all, it is a white more like 6000k bulb
I asked other sellers arnd, they said its just coated blue, its actually white
I know i can get hid conversion kit for my fog,
but i just want to replace the bulb and have bright bluish color for my fog
Some ppl told me to use the smd bulb but I am still debating
Is there anybody who knows where
I can buy good quality real bright bluish H1 (8000k, 10000k) bulb?
or did anybody try the 12-smd blue bulb on their car?
LEt me know
thanks

Www.ddmtuning.com has some great kits for the fogs (the raptor kit). Buying from eBay you shouldn't be surprised that the bulbs sucked. eBay is not the way to go for car parts my friend

You need the 12 SMD LEDs, they are the only ones that will fit. They look nice and blueish/white but provide no adequate lighting what so ever. I mean, if only your fogs are on, they provide no lighting to the road what so ever. Here in Canada the fogs are used as DRL and they do the job. They are perfectly visible in the headlight when the bulb is on, but do not expect any actual fog light usage with LEDs.

I also bought a set of 6000k H1 bulbs from ebay because I wanted more light output, I put one in to compare with the 12 SMD led and it looked totally yellow, just like stock. I am pretty sure that ebay bulb also busted a fuse because now both my fogs won't turn on lol.

yeah
i know foglight is pretty much day driving light
i just wanted to some for bluish, it does not have to be deep blue
something that has blueish look, bcuz the stock one is too yellow
so i should go 12-smd so at least I can have bluish color on my fog
right?
