i was looking for h11 light bulbs for my fog lights and then i came across these..

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/H11-...ptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories

i was wondering if anyone has used these before and are they worth getting.

i know everyone is jsut going to say jsut get HIDS for my fogs, but right now im leaning more towards jsut regular halogen bulbs for my civic fogs.

also how are the h11 yellow nokya bulbs, i heard those burn out quickly jsut as fast as those other blue halogen bulbs on ebay.

I have LED bulbs in my turn signals/intersection lights.

I like them and have had no issues with them, the ones you are looking at look ok, I guess if the price is decent, try them out.

Personally haven't seen anyone use LED's for a replacement bulb in fogs, but someone has to be a first.

Actually I think the majority will say do NOT put HID's in your fogs. And I'm confused, are you wanting to instal LED's or filament bulbs in your foglights?

I would recommend you stay with filament bulbs for your fogs, because putting LED's in will turn them into driving lights, which won't do anything for visibility. You would have to buy or fab a super expensive LED bulb to have one that would make the same light as a regular H11.

A buddy of mine has Nokya yellows in his fogs, and they have been good thus far.

this is the shop i went to get my bulbs for my fogs. 14 dollars for nokya yellows. local pick up. no tax if paid in cash. but if you want it shipped its around 22. im not sure if that is worth it, if you gotta ship it. http://www.advancespeedshop.com/?gclid=CObssZn4mJ4CFSWlagodX2cflA so i guess if you want the bulbs you can go there if you ever pass by it or go to a meet around that area. just be sure to call first.

i think it looks better. but it IS a cop magnet. lol. i think if you just want regular bulbs at least get some nokya arctic white bulbs on it. my friend has it on his Benz and it doesn't look bad.

For the amount of people that have yellow bulbs/yellow tinted fogs, I don't think you'll need to worry about the police too much.
