Default Fog Light replacement bulbs

Hello Forum members have any of you replaced your fog light bulbs? I have a 2011 ES350 and I'm looking for a white fog light bulb that more closely matches the color temp of the stock HID's.
Any advice would be apreciated.
Thank you.

Hoen USA has the match to Xenon HID bulbs. Has website, just need the bulb number.

It is bulb size 9006 / Hoen has it for Xenon match. I have purchased them in the past for a 2004 Lincoln LS and the bulbs worked flawlessly with the right blue / white color.

it matters what you actually want the Fogs for. if you want them for pure looks then get LEDs. if you want actual functioning Fogs then get 3k halogens or 3k hids. if you want them for extra light as opposed to actual fog fighting then get either normal halogens or 4-5k hids.

Can you replace the fog lamps to get a whiter brighter output and stay within warranty?

I'm sure installing an HID fog kit would void the warranty.

Thanks.

If you just change the bulbs, then you should be good. The Hoens bulbs are replacements, for the look.

you would have to read the warranty i think to be sure. but im pretty sure just changing the bulb isnt going to do anything to void the warranty. but on the other hand my brother has a nissian juke which he installed hids for fogs and lows and they didnt void the warranty.

this thread was very helpful. a few of you guys have used these Hoen USA lights? do they give off hyper white light or that white bluish light? I see the correct bulbs for the low and fog lights however the bulbs listed for the low beams aren't for factory HID's (D4S). Do they carry one and im not seeing it or are the other two bulbs used to match the factory HIDs? Thanks guys

I replaced my fog 9006 OEM bulbs with the Hoen 9006 bulbs and they're a very good match to the HIDs.

Let me put this out there now for anyone else reading this thread.

Modifications voiding your warranty is a MYTH.

The burden of proof is on the dealer to prove your modifications caused any malfunction you're asking them to fix.

Outside of something explicitly stated in say a lease contract, this is FACT, and has been proven in court.
