I have eurolite hid kit and it has been great! Lockdown installed it. If you mean just the normal bulbs. No. I don't have any experience.

I have them for my fogs...They look better than stock but are still not even close to being as white as my HIDs. I have had these bulbs for almost 2 years with no problems (Used them in my last car too). I have had good and bad experience with them. Bad was just a few of them have burnt out just after buying them.

I've used them in the past.
It's basically "hit or miss" with them, but the majority of the retailers who sell them will give you a 3 month warranty. Most of the time it will either burn out within 3 months or last you a year+.
If you do plan on using them, only purchase them if they give you a 3 month warranty if they burn out............

Used them on the Z24. They last only a year. Take a pass on these bulbs.

They only lasted for a year on my old accord. Not worth it. Get a cheap HID kit. You don't need the daytime running lights going through your fogs. I have not had daytime running lights for over a year now with my 8000K.

Lockdown can hook you up for under 4 bills I think and they last 6 times as long as reg. bulbs

I've had those for fogs before didn't last long, switched to Nokya hyper yellow those are still going strong for me and I use them as DRL too. Get a HID kit if you're planning to get the bulbs for headlighs.

used eurolites in the projectors I had in my civic... they are pretty cool lights... but they are very poor quality.... blow very quickly... kept having to replace them to the point where i replaced the projectors back with the stock headlights.... haven't tried them in my 3...and am not planning to :D

These bulbs are total $%^T. One just burnt out on me, and its only been 3 months. Just like most people who have had this bulb set. Soooo frustrating. Just a note that I am always very careful not to touch the bulb at all, with my finger or anything at all. Its like 'operation' when I install.

Do not buy Eurolite Yellow Fogs.

I have yellow Eurolite fog lights in right now; I even use them as my DRL. So far, so good.

For your sake I hope they last. 3 months seems to be the life expectancy.

Ymmv.

I really would like either yellow HID lights or even the yellow LED bulbs, anything that will last longer than these (admittedly) crappy bulbs.

I'd be up for Yellow LED fogs. I'm going by pacific mall again, I may try a different brand. I like the yellow. They are pretty bright to.

You wouldn't have to worry about lasting 3 months if you got it from LockDown where they give one year exchange warranty.

I'm still on my set of yellow H11s Nokyas from 2 years ago for my fogs.

Granted I never use them unless its foul weather or the night cottage drive.

I expect them to die anyday now. I'll probably switch back to stockers after that.

I have the same lights as RR The nokya's are pretty good, good light output as well, and I've heard people saying that these are pretty good lights for the price

I've got the Nokya's now. They are more expensive, but they're brighter and yellower.

#1 I hope they last longer.
#2 These bulbs get wickedly hot (I run my fogs all the time at night)

Seriously they're hot. I'm concerned because I wanna run my fogs as DRLs.

I was wondering about that, cause I was there with a buddy and he said he bought a pair for his camry about 2 years ago; still works great. But if you guys are saying they burn out pretty easily, might as well actually buy a HID kid. Saves more money in the long run.

Eurolites are $25

Nokia are $40

If these burn out I'm going stock or LED.

They're pretty much Halogen bulbs that just output white light right?

or you could buy eurolite for 35 +tax with 1 year warranty at lockdown.

hey dave, you know what oddly enough you are right.. those nokya's get really hot, the other day I was checkin them out and I went to wipe off the lens on the fog cuz there was some dirt and burnt my hand thought that was pretty weird!

Yea...I don't mind because at night temps are cooler and such, but I mean if I used those lamps as DRL, man I might have quite the issue.

I'm with you I always have my fogs on at night, don't like the way the car looks without them
