Question Cyberwhite driving lights

I'm looking to replace the stock fog lights with something brighter to improve nightime visibility. I've seen a few posts about the Cyberwhite driving lights, and they seem like the best bang for the buck. However, after seeing them in the store, I was curious if they project more of a blueish light (since they have a blue lens) rather than a pure white light. For those of you that do have these installed, how well do they actually work?

Re: Cyberwhite driving lights

If you're just looking to improve the effectiveness, here are some other options.

The stock bulbs 880 are 27 watt. The following bulbs should also work but have higher wattage:

885 - 50 watt
893 - 38 watt

You can get them at Autozone, Advanced and even Walmart.

Thanks, bnaylor. I'd like to install a 50w, or 55w set of lights. The bulb replacement sounds easy, but I've heard that the heat from the higher wattage bulb will melt the housing or the harness (or both).

What type of setup do you have on your GP?

I run the 37 watt bulbs with the stock fog lamp relay and fuse. Haven't had any wiring heating up or fuses popping over the past 8 years. On the 50 watt, extended operation may melt the lens but I know of few local GP guys running them safely. The fog lamp relay and fuse should be upgraded to 15 amps. It's the same mod to install Blazertechs.

Re: Cyberwhite driving lights

To improve night visability you may want to change your regular low and high beam lights with Extreme White... They dont give off that blue look. the fog lights dont seem to project as far as the headlights.... Also, normally if the lights are white they are considered driving lights, if the lights are yellow they are considered fog/rain lights
