Default Piaa or Nokya bulbs

i was thinking of getting one of those bulbs for my fog lights but im not sure if the piaa are worth the price and ive been reading that noyka burns out fast. any experiences you guys had with these bulbs?

yeah do a search on the nokyas. I will admit they are really bright, but they burn out really fast and your going to need to upgrade the stock headlight wiring, but there also only like 20 bucks for a set, haha. Haven't heard anything bad about the piaas.

I have never owned a PIAA bulb that burned out in less than a year and a half, but that all depends on how you install them.

PIAA FTW!

You wouldn't happen to have any pics with those piaa ion yellows? I was interested in getting those for my fogs, and was wondering how the color turned out.
