Install: 7-colour angel eye foglights from Custom Maxima
I was wondring if anyone could please shed some light on the 7-colour angel eye foglights from Custom Maxima. I have a 1995 SE with stock foglights and I was wondering if these would replace them (fit in the same holes) or how else they are to be installed?
Thanks for any help.

I e-mailed Custom Maxima to send me a copy of the install instructions because I am thinking about buying the foglights... but I want to make sure on the how-to for the install before I shell out $100 on lights. In any case, as usual, I have never received an e-mail response from them.
I am trying to figure out if it is possible to replace the stock foglights, in the SE foglight holes with these.

I would hope that they replace the stock SE foglights in some way... but HOW?

I e-mailed one of the other org members about them, and this is what he had to say:
1: installation in place of my stock lights required about 2 hours at the shop.
2: they looked kinda of cheap....didn't want to replace bulbs every month.
I have been talking to Matt at Umnitza (they made the demon eye headlights for the 2k2/2k3 and they are working on something similar th these, but not as cheap looking for the gen 4. Matt actually himself said that they wouldn't sell this particular set that I posted about.
I'm trying to talk to him re: gen 4 projector headlight housings (maybe with BMW style demon eye headlights)... and more importantly dual beam.
I'll post another thread gauging interest in a GD.

They are just aftermarket fog lights, like any other. They come with the wires and the hardware (i.e mounting bracket etc.) you remove the stock FOG lights with the little screw in the corner of it. Then take the mount bracket put it in that hole and put the fog light it and connect wires,etc. shape doesn't matter its all about how its mounted. I think the white one look cool, the other colors just dont look right like the red or green. blue might be ok.

So these angel eye foglights come with mounting brackets that will fit the stock SE foglight holes, and it would replace the entire stock foglight housings?
wow.....fast and furious and then 2 fast 2 furious comes out, and all the sudden its "ohh i need colored lenses" and LED on my car. If its a show car, i can maybe see, but if you are building a car stomper, better keep that thing so it isnt so distinguishable. gets you into less trouble. Besides, the square look flows better than the round look.
Yes, you just take the stock one out (very easy) afaik these come with the mounting brackets. IF they didn't it would be a worthless purchase. You can probably easily mount them in the center in the lower opening, but you can't use both sets of fog lights at the same time while driving, laws are dumb. Aftermarket fog light install are usually a universal setup so they work on any car, which usually means the install is simple. We installed some carbon fiber oval things on my friends car in like 10 minutes.

I was SOOO tempted to do thatyesterday when i put mine on, but i didnt think the driving lights would shine through well enough, great idea though.

The pics of these angel eye fogs on custom maxima looks awesome... but unfortunately the pics are all in pitch dark, and no daytime pics. Something tells me that they did that for a reason - that being that the round foglights mounted in the stock square foglight location in the bumper looks stupid.
Scrap that gay idea... I'm going back to putting my money into ***** and not bells...
