we've all been searching for them, but nobody's had any luck. getting a yellow tint on the fog lens itself works, but you can see yellow during the day also, and it looks a little tacky in my opinion. i wish they had a decent bulb for us.

I thought that the Ion yellow only came in a 194 bulb.

Sorry V8killa, but those are only 194 bulbs painted with something yellow. Dont believe in whatever they call those 194 bulbs are. There are no Xenon, Ion, etc 194 bulbs. They're just plain bulbs and nothing special. As for anything Ion yellow, they are mostly pupleish at an angle and whitish on long distance. They are yellowish however when its hits an object at a close distance. So, if you're going for the looks, then Ions are not for you. I have Ions for my fogs, I hated them at first but they've into me now :)

Tweazy (I think it was), had a lot of problems with the PIAA Ions. Within the first month or so, $90 bulbs went down the drain. If you want the yellow look, remove the stock fogs, and try to fit IS300s fogs or something.

Well I just ordered the fogs, I really like the bulbs if something goes wrong then that's it I won't buy them again, you never know your mis-fortune with the PIAA's might be my gain..
