ok so ive read on so many threads, that when replacing bulbs for fogs, dont get anything higher then a 55w bulb. and i have seen some threads that say something along the lines of "packaging says **W but bulbs say **W."

My question is are these safe to use without worrying about melting the harness. Nokya Hyper Yellow 9006

Now second question is that i was planning to replace my parking lights with a matching set of Nokya Hyper Yellow 1157. has anyone seen a mazda with this light setup? anyone have pictures perhaps?

im trying to decide wether to go with the white lights all around or the accents of the "jdm" yellow lights.

so i just realised oem fogs are 300 direct from mazda. which is outrageous. my car goes into the shop in the morning for body repairs :(
going to ask how much they can get me a pair for.
i found these. says package includes Wiring harness, relay and on/off switch . is this all i need? i have an 07 mazda3 i 4dr bought without fogs.

Heres my nokya hyper yellows. Ive had them on for about 2 months and work fine. But they do get hot. although i think this is true with all fog bulbs.

I dont get why so many people want the nokya yellow fogs when they have many issues with short life and burning/melting harness due to over wattage. Nokya and luminics are not the only brand with yellow fogs.

I would recommend the DDM or Hoen brands...both are safe wattage and have had nothing but outstanding reviews.

quick read for ya

I thought the heating problems were for the 9006 type bulbs. I will be using H11

Ive had my Nokyas in for 2 years now (H11 bulbs) with zero issues and daily use.
