Default Fog Light Bulb upgrade on my new 14 MCA convertible

Ok. So, I wasn't happy with how yellow-creamy-white the factory fog light bulbs looked when the headlights were on. I bought some XTEC H11 bulbs off Ebay (I have used these bulbs on my wife's Buick Enclave) and the color is a very nice white-slight blue tint. I paid $7.99 for the pair with free ship.

I have to say, I am impressed again with these bulbs! I think they are a perfect match to the HID Headlights on the Mustang. The LED side markers are a little more blue than the headlights, but the difference with these new bulbs are 100% better.

Yes, it was a little bit of a pain to change them, took me about 1 hour start to finish. But the results are great.

Now, here in Las Vegas we don't get FOG. So, I changed the bulbs for pure cosmetic reasons and will use them as added driving lights. I am very pleased with how they look.

Here is a picture. (Its very difficult to get a good picture of lights, but I think you will be able to see how much better they match the headlights)

I am just loving my new Mustang. So glad I went for the MCA package and Saddle Leather/Sterling Grey color combo. I ordered an Airaid CAI and it should be here by Friday. Tomorrow I am adding a BOSS center hood stripe.......wish me luck!
