Realigned the fog lights and Yellow bulb.

I just got my Fog lamp re-aligned and fitted with "Gold" yellow bulbs. Now it is really a good FOG lamp. I have no need to worry about rain or foggy area.
The 1st image (Before) is less yellow and the light merged to one due to alignment issue.
The 2nd image (After) is much more yellowish and the light beam have been aligned (can see 2 beams). At rainy time and Foggy time, the yellow beam is more useful compared to the white ones.

FOG lamps......

I have chanced on a set of Hella 530 Clear Fog lamps. It uses 55W 12V H3 bulbs as standard. As my car is lack of fog lamp and the original used unit is snapped up like hot cakes by the locals (imagine paying for RM250 for a pair of used Fog lamps), so i took it and got it installed by the shop selling it. I tested it at night near 12.30am when the petrol station have closed, they have a wall at a very dark corner for me to align the lights.
Now it is safer to drive in FOG, Rain or very dark roads as the view does have improvement.





Views from inside of the car. Those Red Blue bins are trash cans and you know how big are those, this is for you to estimate the distance to the wall which is more or less than 8~10 meters.
