I'm wondering if anyone carries yellow bulbs for fog lights. I will be installing the HID kit for the low beams, and would like the contrast that you see in previous generation Lexus IS300.

A good and easier alternative is to get yellow foglight overlays. Then you won't have to install a different bulb. It will also give you some functionality by protecting your fog lights from damage and cracking.

Has anyone tried the combination of yellow bulbs with the yellow overlays. I have the yellow overlays, and they look good during the day, but when lit, I find that they are not very yellow.

Look under the sub-category called "Lighting"

Yellow overlays have a tendency to "burn" due to the heat of the halogens, as some of the members have experienced. Just a heads up...

My Laminx on my passenger side is burned but I have a big sheet so come spring I will replace.
It actually took a while to develop a burn like 2 years but I know some members that got it sooner.
