    Hi All ,
    Trying to find some decent 3K temp H11 LEDs for my fog lights.
    I had some DDM tuning 3K H11s , but one died and cant find replacements.
    Anyone have a similar bulb/light that they like? The white light is no good for me in the snow/rain/fog .

    I had 3k halogen bulbs from nokian in my truck before I went with LED morimoto. They were ok but the fogs on these trucks are such low wattage that it just wasnt enough light.
    I get what you're trying to do by using yellow light to cut through fog, I also think they look better than white light. BUT I think upgrading to hid or led bulbs in the halogen housing will actually cause a lot of light scatter and worse overall lighting in adverse conditions.
    I have had both hid and led bulbs in halogen housings and they were both absolutely terrible in rain, snow, or fog because of the scatter. Not to mention blinding oncoming traffic.
    Unfortunately your best bet will not be cheap. Either hid retrofits or proper LED projectors. Ridgid makes some that are DOT approved and baja designs makes some really bad ass, bright lights (squadron pros or sports) and are supposedly coming out with some DOT lights soon, if they already arent out.

    I have a set of Morimoto XB fog lights. I may just throw those in there and see what happens. They are not the yellow color i am trying for ...

    I have the morimotos and they look good. You could always put yellow laminex on them. That's a cheap solution
