    Hey guys, getting around to making some changes to the new (to me) taco. Thought you guys would like this pic. I couldn't find a recent "post your yellow fogs" thread.

    5k HID in the Spyder projector (came with the truck), Yellow Hella H10 bulbs:

    That looks awesome. I'm waiting for my bulbs to go so I can upgrade to yellow bulbs. I have the tint but would like more yella.

    These are just bulbs installed, no film.

    Looks good!

    I have Nokya and Hella Optilux XY in my stock setup and I've got Hella Optilux XY in my ARB lights.

    I just wish I could figure out how to get them to stop shorting out on me. I have to break em apart again and do some better work insulating them. Growing sick of blowing fuses. I'm on the fence about getting some film for them. I've got the Duplicolor Metalcast paint but I've seen mixed reviews on how well it holds up if you paint the outside of the lens.

    I have a pair of Nokya Hyper Yellow bulbs in my fogs right now, used maybe an hour at max.
    Not going with the yellow look anymore.

    Will trade for a 5000k or 6000k HID kit if anyone is interested

    it this the right bulb?

    http://www.pepboys.com/product/details/795874/00828

    I'll certainly consider this when my 5k hid burns out. I use my fogs as DRL so they are constantly on, so the yellow color will make it more visible during daytime.

    Amazon sells it for $17, but somehow it says does not fit a tacoma, which is strange since tacoma fog is h10.

    That is the right bulb. Same as this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B002E2SJAA/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?qid=1407638025&sr=1-3&pi=SY200_QL40

    I ran the Nokya for approximately 11 months before they burned out with 0 ill effects. I had the Hella Optilux bulbs for approximately 5 months before I swapped bumpers with zero ill effects again.
