That pic is taken out of context. notice the left fog and the right fog? Tell me whats wrong.
Oh maybe it was to demostrate the difference between 4700K bulbs vs OEM.

[/quote]I've noticed that on my PIAA 4150 bulbs that if I go off center that they become less white (blueish) and more yellow. I think this might be a case of that - the camera not exactly center to the two bulbs

In Europe the xenon gets stronger and the "flashers" comes on when you are switching to high-beam.

Yep Ipp
Have the same on our car..
In Sweden and Denmark where I'am we should have our lights on all day long.. But unfortunally we don't have that smart DRL thing as you have in the US.. :'(
In AUTO mode we drive with xenon's lights ON all day, the inner lights (halogen) is used for flashing, and high-beam...

On my UK model the centre ones come on with the high beam xenons. Must be different per country.
