It's been almost four years now with the OEM fogs and Amber tint. As the years went on, the tint was getting nicked to hell. So last fall, I jumped into a Group Buy for a set of Morimoto LED Fog Lights. And like I did years ago, I went with the Amber window tint again. I just think it looks nice against the Moonlight white with chrome rings.

I have one here, but it looks odd. To the naked eye, it looks amber/orange. But to the camera lens, it looks yellow.

Anyway, here's the same pic from this morning...

Like I said, to the eye it's actually orange, and looks exactly like this picture below from four years ago. Although with the LED light source, it's more, well... "sparkly" than this was:

Do you have any night pic's of those fogs. I currently have hoen bulbs I am very happy with but with the morimoto LED I am trying to see if I can get the same yellow tints as the hoen's.
Thanks

But the amber tint tones it down.IDK how functional they are, and don't really care. I just like them for the look... amber turn-signals, amber running lights and amber fogs. And the look even (or particularly) when the lights are off. The amber tint gives it just enough splash of matching color up front, it looks all creamsicle-y on my Moonlight White sedan.
As you know, they're only amber because of the window tint I applied to the lenses. The LED bulbs themselves are a bright white. Really bright, and really white.
