Anyone know what bulbs are in the foggies on the Berlina?
Just installed CrystalVisions in the headlights and wanna match the foggies with them

With fog lights, the brighter the lights the less visibility you will have when trying to drive in fog. I suggest that you leave the original globes as you could also run into heating problems if you increase the output too much and damage/burn the reflectors. Fog lights should only be operated in /during periods of low visiblity without the headlights on otherwise too much glare and the light will just bounce back at you off the fog. After all - they are fog lights - NOT driving lights.

I agree with benboy, just leave the standard ones in there.
The size of the globe is H3, well they are in my SV6. So should be the same size as urs:thumbsup:

i have put an after market h3 bulbs in my svz foglights which i think is the std, they match the after market h4 xenon blue headlamps and look pretty good in the night, yeah i do agree that fog lamps are for foggy weather only...but if you have them matching with your headlamps they look cool:thumbsup:

Yeah was thinking of changing the fog light bulbs, but couldnt be arsed. Will change when one of the original bulb blows.
I still have the opti blue H3's from my last car, they have a nice bluey rainbow colour to them.

this thread WILL NOT become another argument/discussion about foglights, what they are, how they should be used or what the legalities of such item are.
Any further discussion will result in a short holiday. It has been done before.
