OEM Yellow Fog Lights

Post by andywilson24 »

Hi guys,

I want to change my fog lights from yellow to white.

My fog light units have a white bulb but also a half ball of glass within the unit which is yellow. Tis obviously akes the light shine yellow.

Can this be cleaned or do i have to replace this or just remove it to get the white light.

Probably a dumb question but im tinking that this half ball thing also magnifies the light?

Any help would be appreciated guys.

Thanks
Andy :?

as far as I know there is no way to change the color of that piece... so your only options are to go to a junkyard and find a clear piece (instead of yellow)... I've seen them on ebay but usually they are selling the whole foglight housing instead of just that internal piece.

mx3autozam is looking to buy a set of yellow fog lights so if you find a clear set, you should contact him...

keep the yellow! I went out of my way to find a pair, I think they are better than the other OEM fogs.

lol I like the yellow too but, the clear ones give you the ability to change bulb color and yellow bulbs look the same as the clear :shrug:
