I need to replace my foglights, and I was wondering what the best brand is? I have Silverstar Highs and Lows, so I was looking for foglights that gave off a whiter light, something that would resemble the Silverstars better and not a factory yellowish color.
If there are some Silverstars that work for our cars, what number are they?
Thanks in advance guys!

if you have ever notice every nice BMW lexus or infinity on the road when they have their fogs on, theyre still a yelowish tint because its close to the DOT legal limit so to find a brighter bulb with or without blue tint, you could run into legal issues

im just looking for bulbs that match the color of the Silverstars better, so it doesn't look blatantly obvious that I have two different brands of bulbs

I'm not the lighting guru, but I will tell you that fog lights are meant for just that, fog. The subdued nature of the lights make it so that it doesn't reflect back at you when it hits the fog, and the coloration somehow penetrates through the fog better, instead of bouncing back in your face and blinding you.

I just replaced the fogs on my Alero to match my Phillips Crystal Vision, and bought the Eurodezigns. Currently, Slyvannia Silverstar or Phillips DONT make the fog light for the Alero. THe number is 894. Streetglow also makes alero fog lights. Whatever you get, make sure it's 894. The Eurodezigns are ok, but they are more of a rainbow colored affect than blue. I would go with Streetglow brand.
