Change halogen fog light to brighter white fogs?

Anyone know what kind of bulb i can use to make the fogs a bright white color instead of that yellow stock halogen color? Brand name? LEDs?? Im clueless. It is a 2010 G Sedan.
*im not going to bother with a HID conversion*

just get some of those blue coated bulbs for the "hid" look. you will loose some light output, but if you're only concerned for the look, then that'll do. If you want a good compromise of a little whiter color without loosing too much light output, get some Sylvania Silverstars. Or PIAA if you want to spend twice the $

Depends on what year you have, etc. Different bulbs for different years, however check out Diode Dynamics. They have LED bulb replacements for fog lights in a pure white (And I was told yellow LED fog lights are in the works and should be available in February). Find your bulb here: Foglight/DRL Sizes - Listed by Size - LED Bulbs

Of you could order some other style bulbs. I just ordered the PIAA Plasma ION yellow fog lights for my 2012 G37 Sedan. Those fog light bulbs are H8
Good Luck!

PIAA makes 4000K Halogens in H11.
They will far outlast LEDs. (I gave up on LEDs!!)

H11 is for coupes, you need a H8 for the sedans.

With yellow fog lights you can actually see in fog. All of the HID stuff and blue colored bulbs people put there are mostly useless to actually illuminate the ground in bad weather, it's just for looks and to throw glare at other drivers.
