Driving light upgrade do I use same bulbs as fogs
#3
Are you talking about the small "city" lights near the turn signal bulbs??? Those are a smaller size...not sure, but the last time I check PIAA doesn't make it. Only some generic brands...

The front city light is BAX 9S socket and a H 6 Watt bulb. Hope that helps.
Edit: the bulb's is a H6W, check out Philips they have them in a blueish color.

Thank for the help guys. What I am trying to achieve, is that often, I simply drive with my fogs on. When I simply turn on the fogs, these other "driving lights" come on that are non-xenon and makes the lights look bad. I want to drive with just the fogs on, but, if I cannot do this, I would like to find a way to make the other lights that come on, match my upgraded fogs.

BTW, just to pass along some info, the fogs I got do not at all match my xenons as many said they would. Maybe I am so **** that I just like everything perfect, but, I can't see how anyone could say they match becuase they look much different to me. Not to say they look bad, just different. I wish they would have matched up better.

Lou - did you get the 55=85 or 55=110??
I have the 85s and they do match (note that they need a few minutes to warm up and get to operating temp. and hence match - takes a lot longer than the xenons!!)

Powerbulbs online said that the Philips blue vision is the closest to a Xenon/H.I.D. color you can get. Check out there web site, www.powerbulbs.com

I am sure that they look great. The problem and concern I have is that it will match my fogs, not that they look xenon. If they do not match my fogs and are not quite as bright or brighter than my xenons, that will suck. I am looking for the same color from all three light sources. I mean one bulb cannot possibley match for every applcation. I am sure you have seen differnt manufacturers that have bluer or brighter or whatever xenons. Different cars with different/warmer/wattage etc look different. If you have tried them and they match the Porsche xenons, I will definately buy them.

How much hours have the Xenon's been on? Because after about 100 hours they start to color shift and they turn a bluer color.
