I'm a fan of yellow lights, but you should disconnect or tint the lens on the running lights above the fogs.

I'd say not. I've been debating on tinting mine amber or yellow. (I don't have fogs though).

I changed my driving lights to amber so that it when the turn signal flashes you don't have a amber light flashing next to a small solid white light.

Did you do this install yourself? If so, when wiring the fogs in, when did you set them to actively turn on?

Wired them with the park light. But it still has a switch if want to turn them off with the park light and headlights on.

oh okay, that's mainly what I was trying to get at. If there was a way to manually turn them off. I quickly skimmed through the install because its a long term future project. Also I drive manual and would have to figure out if the wiring would be different.. Most likely.

Just get the OEM fog kit. You'll be fine. Everything will be just plug and play. with wirings i think its just the same? I think so. Anyway, goodluck.yellow fogs are awesome just need to put HIDs to make them brighter.

That's a good point, I'm planning on getting most of my mods by means of TRD OEM made. For fogs being HIDs, would you need a ballast? and post a pic when you get them HID please, curious on how they would look. When I do mine, I'll probably keep em yellow only because its made in that specific colour and brightness to penetrates fog the most out of any other ones.
