Has anyone tried 3000k led h11 as fog lights? I am looking for the pure yellow output and I notice that 3000k is an option and wondering if anyone has tried them.

I haven't tried LED but I had HID and now have halogen...I'll stick to halogen. I had nothing but issues with moisture from HID fog lights bulbs and I am a DIY'er who is VERY careful with how I install stuff. They just don't last more than a year or two. My halogens have been working fine for a year and have even had so much as a flicker.

I have 3000k HID bulbs in my fog lights. Maybe they're 3500k. I don't remember. I bought a cheap set on Amazon and they work well but take about 30 seconds to warm up and get yellow yellow. I also have a set of cheapo Kensun bulbs in my Lexus that have outlasted some high dollar retrofit source stuff.
