im pretty sure blue as in blue blue are a defect straight away.. Yellow for me is the most effective :thumbsup:

i could possibly get different coloured covers if i needed, i think.

sometimes the fog i drive in, can only see 5m in front of my car, doing 105km/h on a country road with a very very very slim chance of a cow being on the road (lol) and often combats and silly other critters.

just my opinion but i think blue makes it worse and harder to see i think yellow is more effective aswell

Get those ultra huge round foggies from supercheap. yellow ones. or rectangle ones. Blue isnt gonna do much jack, if u think about it - HID - Blue ish white - Foggies - blue foggs are pretty much white.. IMO, u wont be able to see anything.

Lukey, yellow works better for fog.

Foglights = yellow.

Blue light tends to get caught up in fog quite easily.

Yellow light doesn't scatter as readily as white/blue light and therefore projects further in the fog.


Blue for show.
Yellow for fog.


And yeah, just go to supercheap and buy a random set, they do the same job and look just as cool. Don't waste $ on OEM ones.

Yellow for the win luke man
Blue = Cop attension n defect

[Lukey]

and thanks all for the input.

on clear nights, white will do best - it's a combo of ALL the colours so it's better than one particular colour.

Supercheap foggies ftw, although you're going to need switches and all that too..

Foglights are yellow. White/Blue ones are usually just driving lamps

I got dichroic driving lamps which help enhance your headlights on really dark roads. It doesnt really work for fog though, it just reflects back to your face.

thanks.

if ur going for visibility get bulbs that have a short wave length. if u go to like repco or autobarn they have a range der u can pick from in either colour, but bear in mind any light projecting forward from the car must be "white" in colour. i recently did my own foglights with 5.5k h.o.d's and they work great.

yellow = ftw
blue = defect

RTA allows foglights to be used as per road conditions... extreme fog or poor road visibilty, otherwise they shouldn't be used...

my yellows in Mt. Mee early morning fog work a treat :)

yellow = function and form, model specific, legal in all areas

blue = aftermarket, dodgey fitment, shit lens that will crack and require a whole new kit for the replacement of one, too bloody bright (seriously hating all these cars with 'driving' lights lol)
