Cool pictures Lit Wee Fit! Funky tails.
I have Optilux Extreme XY (yellow) H11s for the fog lights, and Hella Yellowstar H4s for the high/low beam. From the front of the car, the fogs are yellower, but when driving, the lows/highs are yellower. I'm much happier with this setup than the original lamps.
I'll have to try redo my pictures I took a while back with the OEM lights. Should be interesting since we have some snow now.

Thanks for the comments on the pictures! I really like them too!
About the Nokya Arctic Yellow bulbs, I used to run those before the HIDs. They are NOT overwattagebulbs, they are in fact same as OEM, 55W. Don't look at the packaging, but look at the actual bulbs, it should say what wattage the bulbs are.
b17gsr,
Yes yes! Pictures please on your double yellow combo! Btw, any step by step instructions on the independant fog light mod? haha!

I'll try to snap some shortly.
LOL, the damn fog light mod. I'll have to post the wiring for the US fog lights and let you kids figure it out. I simply added a ground to the fog light relay, and now my fogs work with my low or high beams.

b17gsr, Im in ontario too, so my car should be the same as yours. How did you ground the fog light relay? (Also..which one is the fog light relay?)
Jonavin, I can sell you my Nokya H11's if you wanna... but I got mine at Pacific Mall in Markham.
As for my headlights, they are 6000K HID from Battle Endless, with some super bright (brighter than stock) white LED parking lights.

The fog light relay is black, clipped onto the fuse box. It's the furthest on the right. You can see it on 4dr4life!'s picture.
The one here.............................................. .................................................. ...VVVVVVV
If you put your finger on it and turn the fog lights on/off, you'll feel it clicking.

All:
While looking for some other bulbs, I came across this site:
http://www.rallylights.com/hella/bulbs.asp
I have not ordered from these folks, but have had good luck with Hella and Osram products for years. Their shipping terms are good too, better than the eBay folks. Note that Hella has moved yellow bulb production to India, due to the use of cadmium in the making of the yellow tint.
EDIT: Anyone know if the Indian prodction is by Autopal for Hella? http://www.autopal.com/ They both list similar lighting and horn products. I have bought Autopal lights in the past, they were of fine quality for the price. Also note the oval Hella and Autopal logos on the lenses look a bit similar....
They, along with Daniel Stern, have good info on their websites.
I do have a set of the yellow "sock" covered H4 bulbs from France, probably about 20 years old, still in the boxes. I had them in a Merc 300D until I figured I was too tempting to the cops.

I never ordered.. but I plan to soon. You can buy them that are already cut, or ones that you cut yourself (for cheaper... of course)
