Anyone know of bulbs to accomplish this look? I don't have fogs but would like a bit of yellow to help cut through the fog here in Italy. I think the yellow looks awesome too! I have seen some shady looking bulbs for sale on Amazon, but I would like a bulb made by a reputable company.

Any suggestions?

Yellow light "cutting through fog" is an old wife's tale, or an urban myth to be PC - 'white' light does better.

Liking the look of yellow is another matter and I guess it would warn other road users there's an odd driver coming.....

Well I stand corrected!

Anyway, I guess it comes down to the look of the yellow light on the bottom. I think its a really nice look. But I guess I'm not gonna get lucky on the matter of finding a suitable yellow bulb. :|

Im not so sure its an urban myth using a yellow light. Example. Shooters use yellow lense glasses to see their targets better, it has something to do with the light spectrum and our eyes, not sure if its exactly the same in cars though.
Another thought is bugs are not attracted to yellow light like they are to normal and white light. This might be another reason to use a yellow light.
