Final help on the Aftermarket Bulbs

So Im probably going to get piaas for my car because i can get the heads and the fogs for a total of $100 I think. I will probably go with the superwhites.
1.) Do they also offer superwhites for the fogs?
2.) Some people buy those H3 Amber bulbs for the fogs. Those emit a yellowish light instead of a bluish right? I want blue for the heads and the fogs.
3.) I know that the clearance light looks bad if you leave it stock, so is it possible to go to a local store and buy those cheap 'immitiation' blue bulbs (5w) and put them on so there would be a blue light instead of the yellow?

I changed all my bulbs on my G and the only one that ended up with a blueish tint was the head lights, that were using the H4 Xenon Plasma bulbs which I got for $35. The fogs I went with the H3 Eurolites for $25 and clearance I got $10 ones. Both the fogs and clearance are whites, not yellows - while the heads are white with the blue tint. I will get a picture if I can of them. No burnout or anything 'yet' - but like I said, I don't drive much in the evenings, so I don't utilize the lights that much at all.

I went to the auto store and they gave me a quote on how much all is gonna cost:
PIAA 15660 H4 Platinum Super Whites 60/55W = $55 (have a 110/100w discharge)
PIAA 15455 H3 Platinum Super Whites 55W/85W = $39
PIAA 19169 168 (clearance) Platinum Super Whites 5W = $11

All came out to about $106. How good of a deal is that? I was thinking about getting plasma, but they said those arent legal, but the platinum superwhites were, which still gave you a bluish tint that I liked.

Koojo, our foglights are 35W.

PIAA makes an H3 Platinum Super White in 35W or 55W. I believe the 35W models is part number: 13435 which is for foglights.

The H3 bulb that is 55W is for H3 headlights

It's not for 'H3 headlights', its a fog light bulb. I know that the stock are 35w. But it says in the PIAA manual that the Infiniti G20's can use the 55w fog light bulbs. And many people in this forum DO use 55w H3's for the fogs. I think someone earlier said they even use a 75w bulb for the fogs. I wont go that far, but I do want the 55w fogs. Which is Part Number: 15455.

I know for a fact the Xenon headlight bulbs wont ruin anything because I've had mine on for over a year 1/2 and they are fine. As for the fogs, dont know. Anyways..
What do I need if I'm gonna add fog lights to my G? I just have the little plastic things in the place of where the fogs are supposed to go.

hummm... 55w on the fog seems to be working fine. haven't burned out a fuse yet. but if you can find 35w, you might wanna just go for that...otherwise could end up with a melted harness.

My brother's Jetta ended up with a melted headlight harness and they charged him an arm and a leg to get it fixed.

Yes. I own it. Piaa part number: 13435

It's not on their website yet, but has been out for awhile now. If you still cant find it, I think cartoys.com has them.

ya b-b00gie i cant find them anywhere. tried to look at cartoys.com and couldnt find the 13435's. are you sure that part number 13435 refers exactly to 35W Platinum Super Whites, and not just a general bulb? If i go to a car store and tell them the number they probably wont be able to find it either, but I dunno. What do you recommend?

Hey b-b00gie whats up? i went to that local auto store today and had them put in part number 13435 in their computer. It came up as PIAA 'Replacement Bulbs'. I ordered 2 bulbs. So you positive that I am going to get the 35W Platinum Super Whites when they come in? I know it seems like I am freekin out over this thing, but I just like doing things right the first time, so hopefully those are the correct bulbs. Thanks man
