Oh i thought there were made yellow fog lights. I was watching a video yesterday of someones car and he had yellow fogs. Maybe he used the viny because the car wasnt turned on. :wink:

be aware that putting foil on the light housings is not always fully legal. there has been a thread before about this where some people were very critizizing.

i agree that yellow fog lights do add somewhat to seeing more, due to the nature of the human eyes. but keep in mind the national traffic regulations.

Oh ok yes that might be true. I just saw the yellow fog lights for the first time today and i thought it looked nice with my dark grey polo.

If you are after bulbs. On my old 2013 polo 6r I used "Nokya 2500k" bulbs. Which give the nicest yellow light without having to use any type of film. Just tried to find them on eBay where I got them last but can't seem to get them anymore. Try googling and maybe try amazon aswell? But they lasted in my fog lights for 2 years with no fading of the yellow beam given :)
