Default To those who ordered the hyper white H11 fogs...

A lot of people were saying that they did not notice much of a difference between these and the OEM bulbs. Then someone suggested that the new fogs had to be "burned in". Has anyone noticed a difference yet? Or is more "burning in" required?

Very disappointing. Are they at least brighter than the stock bulbs or are they identical?

Default I must have the best luck ever. Mine are superwhite and look real close to the color of my Xenons. I

will post a night time pick. I really like the way mine look. Infact, you can even tell the diff. during the day.

Default They helped... (lots more)

I drive with fogs on whenever my lights are on, which is most of time in rainy Western WA. I didn't like the fact that they were a noticeably different color.

Now they are still a different color (not a perfect match by any means), but the difference doesn't jump out at you anymore. I put my car next to our other car (A Hyundai with normal halogens), and the Xenon mains stood out as brighter and whiter. My fogs looked like they belonged on my Audi, not the Hyundai, so mission accomplished.

I also noticed that doing this test right after turning the lights on made the difference more pronounced. After driving home from work and doing the same test, the fogs matched even better. This lends credence to the theory that the color matches better at higher temperatures, although whether that is due to the fog lights or the Xenons is debatable; they both change color over time.
