That's confirmed! I took pics of my Ion Yellow fogs but they look pretty normal on pics. Really, the rays are like this: top leve, purple, mid level yellow, bottom level purple. I guess thats why they are called Ion yellow and not Golden yellow. Also, from a very far distance, they are white.

Nope because the yellow is in the lens of the fogs. And the yellow fogs only go on HID equipped GS'.

If you want a uniform yellow bulbed light, go wih Matrix Yellow. Stay away from PIAA Ion Yellow bulbs.

If anyone wants the Matrix 9006 Yellow bulbs, I just took them off and replaced them with the Silverstars I had. I got bored of them. $13 bucks shipped is what I'm asking for. They have been used for about almost 3 months now and they are still like when I bought them.

I'm the one 2nd from the left and the Yellow Ion that you guys are talking about, its the second from the right; Tweazy; Ron's car.

PM me for questions.

If you guys want other pictures of those Matrix Yellow, check steve's site. He's had them on his car the longest. That's the reason why I know about those bulbs.

There are alot of retailers that carry Matrix. Just do a search for "Matrix 9006 Yellow" on MSN. I found many retailers that have them. Good luck finding the best price, as there seems to be a pretty wide distribution on that.
Let's just pretend I didn't grow up, or you're going to be terribly disappointed.
