I replaced the fog light bulbs (H1) with rather expensive (ack!) PIAA "Ion Crystal" yellow bulbs, and these work great! Really helps in inclement weather, lights up low and wide, aiding visibility in rain and fog. These are hard to find though, and I had to buy them on eBay from an American based in Japan. I've also seen them at sigmaautomotive.com.
For about $20 you can get Philips "All Weather" bulbs which probably work just as well, I found these at powerbulbs.com. I'll probably try those when the PIAAs burn out..
Anyone know of other sources for yellow, "all-weather" H1 bulbs?
