that's not spot light, its a fog light, white color lights are not good for rainy days
U just need to open up a few clips of ur fender wheel guard on the bumper side to access the bulb. |

6k is not ideal for heavy rain or fog. Its just for style.
Look for 3k golden yellow led ones. They could penetrate much better. |

Yes, avoid white LED for fog lamps. Even Myvi G3 fogs are in halogen/yellow. Anyways, if you want brightness, try getting at least 4,300K. Anything above would be too 'white' and may invite trouble if pulled over at roadblock.
Price wise, can always visit online or check those OEM car parts at Taman Paramount etc. Brands like Osram, Philips, PIAA all good. If not a DIY person, just get the bulb and get a workshop to do it for you. |

In proper saying so that no miss understand Hmm, helps to do some research like understanding the correct bulb in use before you visit those stores la, if you worried kena slaughter or conned. Then again, just need to ask those shops whether they have bulbs for Myvi Lagi Best foglamps.I just did simple Google search and came across this post on Lazada: https://www.lazada.com.my/products/2pcs-per...s837894074.html Anyways, in the listing, it says using H11 bulbs. So, are you planning to just change the bulbs or replace the whole foglamp housing? Best to set aside a budget also, anything exceeding that budget, better walk away and think twice. At the same time, too cheap also, like those bulbs you can get from Mr DIY may not be recommended as it may burn out faster. |
