H3 55W Yellow fog lights for the Mazda?

Hey guys, long time no talk.

My passenger side fog light burned out on the Mazda and I'm looking for a replacement. I've been doing some research here on the forums and alot of people have recommended the Luminics brand if I'm going for the yellow fog light look.

I'm doing it because where I live there is plenty of rain in wooded area's and snows heavily in the winter, and based off of reviews the yellow light is more practical for those weather conditions.

I've found the Luminics H3 55W pair in yellow on Amazon for $27.99 shipped.....leaning towards ordering them but going to wait to hear some of your opinions.

If you have yellow fogs on your truck, please post pictures!

Thank you, Steve.

I've read that 55w will melt your fogs! You should go with 3000k 35w!

Bulb in fogs is a 9005 65w. It's originally a GM high beam bulb but fits into the housing like the 9145. I have the 9007's in the headlights which is what Ford calls for...I think they're 55w low and 65w high.

Or you can do one thing...as per your area and location, how much is the darkness during winter...?? just see to that point and also ask your mechanic he will suggest as per your car..
Whether heavy watts are required or nominal..that will suits the best.
