After trying a no-name brand, Pia, xenesus, and Hoens, I am still not satisfied with my fog lights. I don't like the fact all the brands I have tried have a blueish tint on the bulb. Being that our fog light housings have a mirrored background when I look at it directly it looks blue. Doesn't anyone make a bulb that doesn't look blue or yellow, but just bright white?

Unfortunately I didn't do the install, it was done by CarLab. From what I was told, it was a simple plug-and-play and that they simply put the ballasts on the inside of the M Tech Kit. Not sure how it was mounted though.

The HID kit is not plug and play.
We offer it with a wiring harness and relay to prevent any error or flicker induced by the LCM.
There is even a write up on this forum about this.
Give us a call, we can get them for you for a good price and a lifetime warranty.

Do you guys ship to Romania as well?! If so what's the price? I'm serious about this and i would have done it a long time ago but the price those guys ask for them over here is just absurd.
I'm interested also in the hid fogs.

Since I am leasing my car, what do you guys think about these:
Platinum White Technology with high efficiency halogen bulbs emit a pure-white color that is closer to natural sun light than standard bulbs.The special feature is the tip of the bulb is coated with silver mirror technology. It is also 100% street legal since it emits platinum white color rated at 4100K. At night, the Platinum Mirror generates a clean, crisp, intense white light. By day, it ensures that no color can be seen in the headlamp reflectors, therefore not effecting the aesthetic appearance and design of modern stylish headlamps.
Approach the brightness and intensity of H.I.D ( High Intensity Discharge ) lamps at fraction of the cost.
Available on PIAA's H4 , H3 , H1 , H7 and Wedge type of bulbs with E-mark ( R37.03 ) regulation.
Special Feature: A Platinum Mirror top with Platinum White Technology.
These Piaa bulbs does not need any HID or Xenon component. Simply plug and play.
It utilize the newest Platinum Mirror Technology.
These bulbs utilize original lighting electronic and it won't damage any part of your lighting system.
