I have a CS and have 3k yellow bulbs in mine, not HID though. I love the yellow fogs but that's just me. They don't show up real good in pictures. These are the best ones I have of the yellow CS fogs.

Don't go over 5k if you replace the bulbs. You will just be wasting money.

If you have fog where you live, and you actually plan to use them as fog lights, get 3000K. If you are going for additional driving lights, which these are really minimal in that dept, then get a headlight matching Kelvin temp. I will be adding 3000K bulbs to mine eventually, when I get everything wired back up. :bash:

Wish I could upgrade my HIDs to 55W and run a 5K bulbs. :(

I put in some PIAA white bulbs to try and match the headlights a bit better. They are ok, not perfect tho. I thought I saw some other white LED ones around... Think I saw them on Stangmods...

Edit: Yeah I saw them there. H11 Here is the link.

Do not put LEDs in a projector housing. Completely useless.

I drive a lot at nite and besides that I think just the look of the 3k would be different a little JDMish but thinking it'll come out good. What is the factory 13 hid bulb number? D2S?

Oh. Hows the output on those? Just realized they are tinted tuner bulbs...not really what I'm looking for. LOL

The light output is the same as stock. No complaints at all. Will probably eventually change them to HIDs but they are great for now.

I have the CS fogs on my 12 (duhh its a CS lol) with 6000k HID's. Light output is perfect and the cutoff of the projectors is mint! I went with 6000k for both the heads and the fogs.

I always wanted to experience 3k fogs so I put those in the fogs on my fusion. Did 8000k up top and 3000k on the bottom

headlights are D3S (only available through DDM right now, so just leave the factory in until more people get them)

Where did you get your 3k fogs?
I highly recommend going to get a kit from The Retrofit Source. great quality and overall good price.
