Hey guys where can i get replacment foglights for my 01 that are really really bright...the factory ones just dont cut it thanks tim

 

Yes you can get aftermarket bulbs from PIAA. Many aftermarket shops carry them. I don't excactly know which ones would go with the 00-01, but I've got the Piaa hyperwhites. Hope this helps.

 

make sure you don't go over 55w - that is what the harness is made for...go higher and you will have melten harnesses like some of our members

that will just cost you more..

fog lights arent generally made to be bright, they are made to cut through fog...and if you get those bulbs with the high temp color...that will defeat the purpose...but most of us don't have to worry about that! I would also recommend PIAAs but some members had them burn out on them fast and some have had it without any problems...which one will you get? lol

edit: oh yeah, search on maxima.org about which bulbs are the best, whitest, etc. http://forums.maxima.org/search.php

 

I improved my lighting by aiming my fog lights a little higher, just close enough to the headlight beam without being too high. I also recommend buying piaa extreme white h3 bulbs for the fogs, theymay be a little brighter. I stuck with the stock bulbs in my fogs after I aimed them up, but most importantly I replaced my headlight bulbs with Philips Vision Plus bulbs. They are the best in the world, and only cost $31 shipped. CASPORTTOURING sells them. These bulbs are stock wattage. They are the best bang for the buck. This set-up worked awesome for me, I recommend it to anyone. PM if you have any questions.

p.s. Here is a great article to read about lighting and bulbs.

The hell with fogs, take em out do what i did.

No but honestly the only way to actually use them for driving is to aim them a bit higher, sticking in brighter bulbs isnt going to do crap for you when in the drivers seat. You can barely even see the beam from there. I had yellow ones in there and when sitting I couldnt see the beam at all. Had to get up off the seat a bit to see it.

To me they were useless. The piping is more useful to me now

u got rid of your piaa ion fogs DIXIT??!!....hell if i had a turbo i would sacrafice useless foglights for piping also.

 

what is the procedure to aim your fog ligths higher?

 

Though a long installation those foglights custom maxima put out are bright as hell. I have them aimed higher than what orginally at. So with my hid's I can use them as a high beam if nessisary. Thats how bright they are.

So the stock harness isn't gonna support 110W fogs? I'm thinkin just payin the $150 & getting some PIAA 910's (closest driving lamps to the weird stock openings). If I use PIAA's hardware, will I lose the ability to turn them on/off using the swith on the stalk? Sorry for the dumb quest..I don't know crap about electrical stuff :|
