Matching fog lights and bulb

Just bought my bi-xenons for steve. I bought the clear fogs also.. but the fog bulbs are yellow and need advice on matching them up with the xenons. Also, the little bulb to the left of the xenon is yellow also...that little light bothers the hell out of me...can anyone give me some suggestions.

Are u talking about the City light. They are the light that is beside the Daytime Running Light. The city light uses 194 weldge bulb. The city light 194 weldge bulb can be replace with LED but it needs inline resistor. The fog light uses 9006 bulb type.

Thanks guys...I will look into that stuff....


MJ50, i was referring to the highway lights....the turn signals I have already changed to white. but thanks for your thoughts.

So i can change the high way lights to white...its pretty annoying to see the xenons on and then those stoopid high way lights...gotta change those...i will also look into changing my clear fogs to the white light.

Congrats on your bi-xenon's. Try PIAA Platinum Super Whites (19169's) for your city lights.

if you switch your 9006s to "xenon look" bulbs.. you will be changing those bulbs more often then you'd like.. and it's a ***** to change those bulbs.. real xenon is the way to go.
