[QUOTE="Traveler, post: 19204, member: 7248"] I have a couple questions here for the people here, specifically for those driving in Malaysia:1. Do you use foglights to see the road better (on dark roads)?- if yes then, which colour foglight do you think helps you the best: the White that is similar to Xenons (4300K and above), the white of halogens or OEM bulbs (I believe these are around 3000K) or Amber/Selective Yellow?2. Do you use (front) foglights in heavy rain/poor visibility conditions (day/night)?- if yes then which colour foglight do you think helps you the best (see #1 for the 3 colours),I would think that in case #1, the Xenon/HID type White is the best, while for #2, Amber/Selective Yellow would be best since in case #2, I presume we switch on the foglights so oncoming cars can see us better (since for the most part we don't experience heavy fog like in Europe/NA). Any comments? I am contemplating replacing my OEM fog lights as I think they are neither here nor there (ie, not bright enough to help much in case #1, and not as great for case #2). [/QUOTE]
