Yellow Fogs in Euro Lights

I have Bosch European Headlights on my SD and would really like to have the fogs be yellow like other stock 126's out there.

Has anybody found a way to do this? I had some PIAA Ion Crystal bulbs from my Honda that I tried, but they did not look yellow when looking at the light unit although the light put out was yellow.

Any ideas, or should I just keep them the way they are??

These "all season" osrams should work http://www.powerbulbs.co.uk/. They have a tint that turns them yellow when lit. I have a pair that i put on the 05 passat's fog lights and they do look yellow. I got them in a package deal with Philips Vision plus bulbs.

Did you still want to trade the ones you have with the yellow reflector? Heck, I'd consider buying the entire setup...

Go to www.rallylights.com and get a set of Hella H3 "Yellowstar" bulbs, you'll love 'em. Plus, since they're the real-deal, you can get 55W, 85W and 110W flavors. Just remember to wire and relay appropriately.
