Looking for the cheap way out to put yellow fogs in my car...

anyone have any recommendations on good bulbs/type of bulb or vendor that sells them. I am thinking if digging into my pockets just a tiny bit and doing yellow fogs, 15/10 spacers, and getting my steering wheel wrapped in thick leather with the blue/red stitching. this should suffocate the mod bug that has been itching me for the past year.

go with Nokya's...

member advans with 2500K Nokya Fogs (xenon match H8 bulbs)



no matter what brand you go with, it's the temp that will determine the color...2500K=yellow

Nokya 2500K H8 bulb

per google: http://www.eautoworks.com/product-Nokya-33102.htm

I also know that Trinity carries Nokya bulbs, just not that temp...you can always give them a call or pm to see if they can get you 2500K

I will pm you my paypal info for my service charge as well

From what I've read Nokya tends to get warm/hot.

I considered HEON bulbs,
