Use transparent yellow film. Kind of like that smoked headlight film.

But becareful because foglights are HOT. The film might melt and turn brown.

I use them on my H1 foggies and their superb, nice deep yellow look.

I used the window dye from bunnings on my light bulbs (red indicator on altezzas so i dyed the bulb green to make it flash amber)....long story short, no good. The dye could not take the temperature and pretty much melted of off the light bulbs.

can u spray that tint stuff directly on a bulb? Im using amber caps on my dash lights but they seem to fade pretty fast.
