I understood what you meant. He's basically saying it's one of those things that actually has a function but ricers ruin.

Anyway, if you don't want the yellow lights, I'd try to find a 6000K HID kit; it'll be almost pure white, and it'll still have usable light output (I believe usable light output starts decreasing in the 6-7000K range). Also, I'm not sure where most people mount HID fog ballasts, but I'd assume either to the rad. support or somewhere in the engine bay. Ideally, you'd want them protected from water, so maybe pull your fenders off and mount them to the frame under the fender?
