for people with HIDs, what do you do for your fogs

leave them off, leave them on with stock bulbs, or leave them on with diff bulbs? im wondering cuz of hte color mismatch b/w HID and halogen and what would look ok. i really would prefer to leave my fogs on since they look badass. pics would be nice too

That's a good point. What do you do?

what i did before was match colors w/ signal and fog.

yellow fog, yellow signal.

i think it may be a good bet that people with silverstars get silverstar bulbs for their foglights?

Rewired foglight wires to control the hid headlights. One solution to the hid that doesn't turn off. :wink:

I am running silverstars in my mains and OEM halogens in my fogs. I just like the color scheme the two different bulbs give. The oem fogs are plenty bright for me. I wish my mains werent H4's, I hate these dual filament bulbs.

Yellows technically better for actual fog and low visibility conditions. White and yellow are legal for fogs. The yellower the light, the better it cuts through fog.

But if you wanna match the HIDs in color, Silverstars for the fogs is probably the easiest way to go. It would suck more than your stocks in actually cutting through fog though. Depends whats more important to you, look or functionality.

when i had sliverstars i used sliverstars for fogs. i just kept the fogs the same when i went to hids. i don't turn them on though. unless theres a lot of fog
