Question Phillips all weather vision bulb?

Hey guys, has anyone replaced the fog lights with Phillips all weather vision bulbs? Do they really improve the road visibility under bad weather condition as Phillips have claimed and how yellow is the light compared to IS300's? Thanx.

So far i heard those were the best bulbs for the low beam....im not too sure about fogs though. Im planning to change the fogs to amber for better looks and visiblity but im going for the piaa's although their a little expensive.

I replaced my fogs with Philips all weather 9006's. The color is only slightly yellow, which is a disappointment. I have not tested them in fog, which is the condition that yellow really "shines".

Sorry about that JIMBO...Your right, they dont make amber. they make ion but not for 9006. i was just confused. I do want that Lexus Style look. My hyperwhites dont match my fogs and i know if i get a different brand hyperwhite for my fogs, it wont fully match my low beams. Thats why i want amber... also its alot easier to see with amber. Well tell me how it goes with the phillips. Hopefully you can take some pix for us.
