Default Anybody Try These 5202 Fog Light Bulbs ?

I have 5k 50W HID lows and looking for a fog light bulb that will color match. Looked around and found the ones below, does anyone have these and how do they look ?

You can't find a 5k 5202?? I'm sure a 4300k fog would look good against your 5k headlights I would stick with the hid bulbs over the LEDs

I wish I could, I had 5K HID's but they were too bright so I removed them. The problem is the stock foglight reflector housing throws light everywhere, most notably into the eyes of oncoming motorists. When in my driveway I could turn on my fogs with the HID's and they would illuminate almost 12 vertical feet at 20 feet distance from my garage. Now I'm just looking for something to color match since I have all the light I need with the HID lows and I think the truck looks better at night with the foglights on.

think it could be the brand of hid/ballasts? i'm not sure... in my truck with 35w 6000k ddms the fogs don't throw light that far. maybe 10' in front of the truck, not even noticeable with my low beams on. they look good tho. i'm sure the plasmaglows would look good too

I think the round reflectors in your fogs are better suited for HID's than my rectangular Chevy units

I have HID's in my Chev fogs. You should have adjustments if they are aimed too high.
