I had the yellow H11 bulbs from MTEC. I already applied yellow stone guard film over the fogs, so it just made it a little bit yellower. I just replaced it with my stock ones again. They looked good, but like I said, it only offered a little bit of improvement with the yellow stone guard.

Thats cool guys. Thanks for the info. I figured that it would do a little something. The PIAA bulbs do look better than the mtec in the pics I've seen. I'm trying to take a pic of the headlights but its raining hear and were going to get snow tomorrow. I'll see what I can do. Im still waiting for my piaa's to arive. Will keep ya's posted.

I'm glad I purchased these bulbs. Personally I love them. The mtec cosmos blue H4 bulbs for the headlights are great. With the added touch of the PIAA plasma yellow H11 bulbs for the fogs the combo lights up the road very well. Also the headlights look a lot like HID's. Remember I also have the yellow protective film on my fog lenses. I think that make the fogs even a little more yellow. I will post a pick of them against a wall very soon. They do look cool. They look like a whitish blue and a deep yellow. Will keep ya's posted. I will be purchasing wheels and tires next.

Definetly worth the money for both the headlights and fogs. I am very happy with both. A good alternative to HID's and they light up the road very well. Also the look you get with both lights on is sick looking. All you see is blue and yellow coming up the road. It must look neat to other drivers!

Yea, my Ion yellows just compliments so nicely the color on the 10000k HID I have on.. lol I too get that blue/purple and yellow coming and reflecting on roads/other cars

Ive had MTEC Ion yellows in my Mx6. They give off a whitish hue when not looking into. When you look into the beams theyre yellow as hell.

I bought some MTEC HID look-a-likes for my moms tC.
They died within 4 weeks. Kinda made me mad. So I went back to the Nokya.

I don't have the MTEC ion yellow fog bulbs. I have the PIAA ion yellow fog bulbs rated at 2500k. They are much more yellower than the MTEC. But, my headlight bulbs are MTEC and so far I have no complaints. I might upgrade to a true HID headlight and fog light. Not sure yet. I really like the setup I have now. Which leaves more money for other things.
