What is everyone using for their fog light bulbs? Recommendations?

Some online research points to Fahren H11 as a good (and affordable) choice. Anyone have experience with those?

Last question... are LEDs in the fogs prone to flicker?

Thanks all in advance!

I have LEDs for my fog lights and never had a flicker issue. I have no experience with that specific brand, sorry.

Thanks! What wattage are you using? The two bulbs I am considering are 30 watts and 60 watts. I think stock is 55 watts and wouldn't think 5 extra watts should be a problem.

Sylvania has some great quality LED bulbs but they are quite a bit more expensive.

This is what I'm using
-ZonCar 5202 5201 Led Fog Light bulbs, 6000K Pure White LED Bulb, 300% Brighter Fog lights DRL PS19W PS24W Replacement for Car, Truck, IP67 Waterproof, Easy Installation, 2 Pack


I'm, assuming these pull between 19-24 watts, I don't think it would be a huge deal to up it by 5 watts but I feel like those 60 watt LED's are going to be way too bright.
You have to remember that LED's aren't designed for reflector housing, they're meant for projector lens so that means that the light is going to be scattered everywhere and potentially blind oncoming drivers.

I recommend you just stick to stock LED's and call it a day.

I've been using Fahren headlight bulbs for a few years now. You WILL need additional ballasts to prevent the flicker on the headlights. The ballasts I had bought 2 years ago and this past January I upgraded the headlight bulbs to a newer higher output. Note, I do have smoked headlight tints on my car so it cuts the glare down a bit for oncoming traffic. Note, the Watt ratings is what the led is equivalent too, its not the actual power consumption. I also have the Fahren fogs(no ballast needed)
I have these installed in my daughters 06 Liberty(no ballasts), My sons 06 Commander(no ballasts) and My sons 2013 Fiat 500(no ballasts).
