i got my hid kit into my fogs and the result is beautiful





let me know what ya guys think, and if anyone ever has trouble retro-fitting the 99 foglight drop me a line.....that metal shield can be a PITA

 

All I got to say is wow... So you just switched to a 99 foglight?

BTW, do they sell fog light metal supports alone? My fogs are fine but their supports are just dying.

 

no, this is an 8000K hid kit that i put into my 99 fogs

 

so what steps did you go through to remove the inner shield. there is like zero room to get it out.

Looks great....how about some night shots.
you going to do some HID projectors too??

 

yeah i'm going to try and put in some type of projector, they are bright and it would be nice to focus the beam

but for the shield, just grip the side of it, inside the foglight housing,(with needle nose pliars) and wiggle it till a side breaks off, then do it to the other side, so you'll have a loose piece of metal jiggling in the housing.....next, grip the piece of metal(used to be shield) and twist while pulling....the metal with wrap around the pliars and come out of the housing hole

i reason i didn't just drill a hole in the shield was that the bulb touched part of the shield, which i thought i was a no go, night pics will be up shortly

 

Those really look nice. What kind of hid kit is that?

 

make a complete write up if you have time, cuz it'll be a valuable resource for fellow org members

 

are you going to install a headlight kit as well?

 

yeah, i will do a full write up, cuz it was a pain to get the shield off....i just wish i would've taken pics while i was doing it

it is a Z-max 8000K kit and i'm going to switch the headlights over next but gonna do a 5000K kit for that so it won't blind anyone

thanks guys, and i'll have night pics up soon

 

cool, thats great that it can be ripped right out easy enough

 

it just takes a little time, but it comes right out......

 

i'll have the whole write up tomorrow

 

Projectors are going in my foglights as I write this. Putting audi TT foglights with yellow bulbs (which turn out MUCH yellow than in a reflector setup) to compliment my projector hid headlights.

 

you have any pics?

lemme know how well the audi TT projectors work in our foglights

 

They'll work great. I was just test fitting them yesterday and all I have to do is shave a little bit off the projector bracket and I'm good to go.

 

Wow, fogs look awesome..

 

i wanna see night shot pics

 

i'll have some night shots up tonight with the write up

 

looks awsome cant wait to do mine.

 

the 8,000k 9004 kit will not blind anyone unless you dont aim them lower. My boy Tony aka Araffio had the 8,000k blue heads and fogs aimed perfectly and never bothered anyone on the street at night. Not to mention its gonna look stupid having 5,000k heads and 8,000k fogs, both will be completely different colors. Plus your fogs will make the heads look like halogens.

dam man it looks crazy nice

 

yea that looks real nice

 

here's a few night pics....realizing my car is really dam n dark, if the ga tint law comes back i'll be screwed

i'll try and catch some better pics with some different lighting

 

nice.. thats a good project worthy of a good write up. help out the org by making one. great work..

yellow fogs still own you... ahha..kidding..
