Default Fog Lamp Bulb #?

Anyone know what type of bulbs our fog lamps require? Has anyone changed with colored bulbs, like HID style? Worth it? I just put in HID style bulbs in the headlights, and it looks kinda funny with the yellowish stock bulbs.

I believe the Fog lights are HB4 No. 9006 i use the PIAA GTX Spark Blue Plasma in my headlights and they are great...close to HID's though. Check my signature for other info.

I did the same with my fog bulbs. They are 9006. Yellow looks great with my HIDs. BTW Dave, I used to have the HID look headlights, and there's NO comparison to the real thing. I'm sure you've heard it before.. but honestly, its like a 500% difference, I'm serious. I really think the fake HIDs are dangerous, they don't light up a thing at night. If you got a couple hundred in the bank, you won't regret spending it on real HIDs. I'm telling you because I just wish I listened to other guys about this sooner. In the end it comes out almost the same anyway, because you'll spend time, money and effort, going to the store, buying and installing 4 sets of those bulbs before mine blow out once. Really, just something to think about.

I've put in SilverStar's. Part #'s in my sig.

If you want REAL HID, put in REAL HID in all six spots! (2 low beam, 2 high beam, 2 fog).
