What is the best Fog light color?
Here in the coming months pending upcoming budgets I planning on adding some fog lights on the truck.
My issue is that all the ones I see are either white or blue tinted white and I always thought that amber or yellow was what made a fog light a fog light.
So what color should a good set of fog lights be and where can I get some?

From; What is Kelvin Temperature and what does each
Lumen (lm)
The international unit (SI) of luminous flux (quality of lights). For example, a dinner candle produces about 12 lumens and a standard 60-watt incandescent bulb produces 830 lumens. The higher the number is, the brighter the light is
Kelvin (K) A basic unit of thermodynamic temperature (color temperature) used to measure the whiteness of the light output. The higher the number is, the whiter the light is. When over 5000K the light begins to turn to blue as daylight.
Color Temperature: 3000K (fog light use)
3000K has an approximately 3200lm output, which is more than 3x the light output of the traditional halogen light. 3000K emits GOLDEN YELLOW color and offers superior penetration power during adverse weather epically in dense fog. The applications of the 3000K kit aim more towards secondary lighting apparatus such as high beam and fog lights. This is the color temperature that will catch all the attention on the road.
