    Yellow zkw fog light question

    Hi everyone,

    I brought a set of "yellow" zkw fog light.
    The seller said that they are genuine yellow fog lights.
    But they are yellow foiled inside of the glass.
    I was wondering, are the genuine yellow fog lights with tainted yellow glass or foiled inside the glass?

    french cars I've seen have had the reflector tinted yellow rather than the glass. There are certain laws about which part of the light can be tinted yellow that I've forgotten since a set of yellow lamin-x is 100x easier and cheaper than painting the reflector or finding a genuine french set

      My brother bought genuine Bosch french headlights for his e36. They were painted yellow on the glass lens on the inside. He used paint remover to remove it when he got tired of yellow headlights.

          Yellow fog

          Personally I have never seen yellow dogs. I’ll bet there is a hyper yellow bulb in that lamp. They are readily available

            There are yellow fogs and headlights. I had a yellow bulb in my fogs when I first got my car. In no way did the housing reflect all yellow like in these pictures. Stayed clear till the light was turned on.

              I've had yellow bulbs with clear lenses and white bulbs with yellow lenses and the yellow lamin-x produces a much more yellow yellow than those yellow hella bulbs.. fwiw
