Nokya bulb impressions ?

Any input on Nokya as a headlight bulb brand.

They make an h11 in 7k and also a yellow 2500 k in h11 for fogs

Thoughts on them? Including any longevity experience?

I have some yellow 65W Nokya in my high beams/DRL. So they are on mostly, haven't busted yet! I like the color too.

Just put a set into my fog lights. I had them in the fogs on my last car (BMW E46) too for almost 3 years and no issues

Use a set of Nokya 2500k bulbs in my DRL/highs as well. So far, 3 mo and counting, so I can't really speak for longevity yet. It does look pretty good at night, and certainly helps with fatigue on those long night trips looking for deer to avoid.

We don't carry the Nokya bulbs, but I've heard good things from customers who used yellow tint and put these bulbs in the housing.

If you aren't doing a 3000K HID conversion or an LED, I would recommend giving these a shot
