Question Fog-light Bulbs on the EVO?

I wanted to find a better color bulb to go in the fog-lights because when the HID's are turned on, the fog's look too yellow. The bulb has H11 LL written on it. I have searched but cannot find any such bulb. Do any of you guys know about this bulb? I have searched on the MITSUBI****ECHINFO.COM through all of the service manuals but couldn't find the part number there. Any help would be appreciated!

After searching further, I found a couple of places that have some better H11 bulbs in 100watt:

H11 bulbs in 55watt:

H11 LL is a new bulb type. It's pretty recent and you probably will have a hard time finding replacements. The LL stands for Long Life...basically meaning it will last longer then a regular H11 bulb...if there actually is a regular one. The link you have is actually the first one I have ever seen for aftermarket H11 bulbs. Thank you.

I would love the blue color for sure. The thing that bothers me about those bulbs is that they are 100 watt, I don't want to melt my harness. If anyone knows of another place that has the H11 bulbs, please post a link!

I wish I could find a "kit" to convert the H11 to regular H3 or 9005 or something more common. The base does look kinda like a 9005 or something. I'm still looking around. Will let you know...

Yes, pictures please! It would be really nice if you put one of the old bulbs in and one of the new bulbs in, so we can see the difference. Thanks!
