03 Light questions

First: are there any instructions on a fog light rewire out yet?

Second: I have been trying to make a decision on what type of bulbs to replace the fog and clearance lights with. In a post that was up here a few weeks ago, I think the overall decision was PIAA Super White bulbs for both. Am I right? If not what is a better option? Also is there any other light that is close to the PIAA Super White bulbs that doesn?t cost around $50 for fog and $10 for clearance lights? Almost anything would be better then the stock ones they have now, just curious as to what is the "BEST" option (cost, AND looks).

The biggest problem I have right now is there is no dealer where I live that stock PIAA bulbs and I am a little worried about spending around $60 on bulbs (over internet) and not knowing if they match the HID's the best. Thanks for any advice.

there is a fog wire writeup. www.5thgenmaximas.com (click how-to's)

I don't think Super White was the top pick, I think more people would rather have XTREME WHITE or SUPER PLASMA. (but these are more $$ but it's worth it in the end)

I had the Super White PIAA's first and I thought that they were not white enough, I switched to the Xtreme White. Much better.

I also use the PIAA xtreme whites in my fog lights. They match the HID very well. They matched so good, that I bought the PIAA xtreme white high beams too. Kinda crazy spending all this money just to have our BULBS match huh guys?
