i am curious to see how it will look:
Hyper white headlights or blue tinted headlights
with yellow fog lights (narva)

i have hyper white headlight bulbs with stock fogs.
i am thinking of purchasing h3 yellow fog bulbs that uses the same wattage as stock. how many watts do 4th gen's fogs use?

 

anyone? there has to be someone who owns a 4th gen with this setup..

 

stock is 55w

 

Id like to see some pics too, I just found out last night my passenger fog went out......

Id like to get some yellow ones this time but dont wanna spend $ on crappy ones again

 

I just installed some the other day...Hopefully I'll be able to take some pics tonight...gonna post them soon

 

I just took some pics, but I don't know how to post them. Could someone help me out? ...They're saved on my pc.

 

You can use several websites for posting your digital pictures. The most common method is by registering with www.cardomain.com, then it will step you thru logging into your own account after its created and uploading your photos. Then you can post the links here to where your photos are at. Or you can use yahoo or msn photo albums and do the same thing by uploading your photos there. You'll also need to post the links here to those photos. A link is an address that points to your photos where it is hosted at.

Other forums have ways of letting you upload photos in a specific webspace within the webserver which is provided to you by the administrator when your account is created. But of course, this requires a server with a huge amount of diskspace and I don't think this particular forum has that, thus the reason why the search function is not available to everyone as well, except for those who are a donating member.

 

Thanks 2DaMax for the info.

Coool, the fogs and headlights show up a lot better w/o the camera flash! For some reason, taking night pictures of a lighted object using a flash adds a bad hue to the photo. The picture is much clearer w/o the flash.

BTW, did you ever run those over-wattage bulbs with the stock harness? Did you notice a major difference in visibility from inside the car at night when you upgraded the harness?

overwatted mtec bulbs (85/110 -> really bright) on stock harness. Haven't melted anything yet.

Wow those look like they work great, where did you buy tthem from?

 

where did you get those corner bulbs from, looks nice.

 

hmm, would that look similar to xtreme white headlights and ion crystal fogs. im thinkin about gettthing that

 

wow on stockies...that's risky. How long have you had them on? I have a pair of narva gold on my desk and i want to install them but i'm afriad they will burn the harness.

Buy from this person cuz he has lifetime warranty, no questions ask. Be sure to get the 80/100 (yeah, i noticed i wrote 85/110 previously... my mistake). They are sometimes refered to as "4x" by other brands. His current price is $10 cheaper than I when I bought mine back in Nov 2002.

They're Polarg bulbs. model m-14. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33708
I'm selling mine. U want them? send me an offer through pm. If you get the polarg bulbs for the clear corners, they will match too.

Had them for over a year (Nov 2002). As stated below, you just needa put grease in the contacts, where the heat developes. Oh, and don't touch the bulbs, but u knew that

I went to Radio Shack and asked for Di-Electric Grease. I dunno if that's the proper grease, but it's held up well!

Here's what I did w/most of my exterior bulbs. I buy contact cleaner http://www.radioshack.com/product.as...t%5Fid=64-4315 and clean contacts in the sockets and bulb bases. Then apply di-electric grease in the sockets http://www.etrailer.com/Merchant2/me...Category_Code=

So far, nothing's gone wrong. In the pics posted, those are 55watt H3 bulbs in the driving lights. I swapped them out with 100watt MTEC bulbs http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2453685744 and did the same cleaning/greasing and nothing's melted yet (except the reflective coating inside the light housing... but those were budget lights anyways.

any idea on how long I gotta wait?

I have another project I'm working on... maybe take a month to finish since I've only finished putting it down on paper and am sourcing the needed parts. I'm looking to run something higher than 80/100, so we'll see. Trying to hit 2/3 the lumens of an HID kit on a budget of $50. Catz Zeta does it, but I have a feeling it's unreliable (I think it's called "stepping", but I dunno for sure). And Zeta's almost $100 with shorter bulb life.

if anybody read my xanga: www.xanga.com/ThurzNite you'll see I wrote about darkness... I think I'm affraid of the dark. Haha!

narva rally gold with silverstars...

 

Thread with pics.

 

i dunno. mine took about a year.

 

the warranty isn't offerd for the yellow H3 bulbs,

I had a pair of these, but the one blew after a couple days, somethen caused a crack in my fog housing, possibly the heat from the overwatt bulb, and condensation formed

anyone else find cracks after runnen higher watt bulbs?

 

He stocks several models, maybe he's got the yellows. I can ask if u want to kno. what wattage did u want?

there should be a drain hose in your fog housing for the condensation. Doubt it's that.

Someone told me that overwatted would make my housing lens turn yellow, but they haven't.

Just installed them a couple of hours ago...



Got more pics on my webpage.
