Best Fog Light Color!, Final pic on page 2! Options

[snapshotgt]

I just purchased some st202 OEM fogs for my 94 bumper (the JDM ones), and I’m wondering what color H3 bulbs I should put in. This poll should be directly related to my situation--is this--not a whole lot of fog, but a ton of deer, and basically just want more light. I like the "Yellow JDM hotness" factor, but don't know if they'll put out as much light as a xenon white/blue bulb.

Also, what bulbs have you found to put out the most light? >>> maker/color?

---> and I know this will come up, so here is a link debating the whole "yellow works better in fog" theory:

here is a pic of the fogs just for kicks :



btw, my headlights are 8500k xenon white/blue

Let me know what you guys think!

Here is something i pulled down from a site that prides themselves on car lighting knowledge

"The old wives' tale that yellow fog lights give you greater visibility over white or blue ones is just not true. The premise of that superstition, that yellow light waves are long enough to pass through water particles without reflecting back into the driver's eyes, is based on a misinterpretation of Lord Rayleigh's principle of light scattering. As it turns out, the water particles in fog and mist are entirely too large to have an effect on any light waves from fog lights, be they yellow, white, blue or even green. In other words, any fog light that is properly mounted and aimed is effective, so don't worry about the color."

Now, everybody can draw there own conclusion..and can do their own searches etc...BUT, for me, I went with my personal favorite look, the JDM Yellow hotness ...lol, I’ll have to post a picture when everything comes in and I install it all...

...plus, I might still think Yellow can work better in different types of whether...why not? ...lol, people have been saying it for years oh well, anything works better than nothing!

...this is a fun thread
