Nope...but remember, he's running 85w Narva's...I'm running 55w PIAA's. I'd REALLY like to see how 55w Narva's look.

I just emailed them if they had harness for H3 application. If they do, I'll be getting some 110W bulbs to see how they look.

if you get higher wattage bulbs, you will fry your harness. Harness will probably cost more than the bulbs. Knowing that, would you still buy the bulbs?

Why don't you try out the 55w bulbs?

I got mine from www.suvlights.com and yes h3

I bought the 85w bulbs because I wanted to see if they looked good. Now I know that I am risking frying my harness and wires and such. But the way I sees it, I will be the test bunny for this and if it doesn't work then Oh well, I will either go to a junk yard and pull some fog light pig tails, or upgrade to a larger harness.

If these do however work, then every one here on the org will benefit by knowing this and I will accept payment via paypal. Hhaha, just kidding.

When I installed them I left the the housing open and the fog light out of the bumper for about 10-15 min while the light was on. I checked the temp. and smelled around and then compared that to my other fog that I didn't have the narva bulb in yet. I couldn't tell any diff in temp or smell, and the outside of the housing on both lights was hot as bejeezhole. I know its not rocket science but it comforted me.

I think I might just try out the 55w for now... But I just wanted that bright yellow effect it.. I don't think the 55w will look half as good as the 85w.

This site sells the 55w for $12/bulb - but i'm not sure about the authenticity of the business.

Anyone have pics of the yellow fogs with 2k-2k1 headlights. I think the yellow looks GREAT with 5.5th gens with HIDs because of the white-yellow contrast, but wondering if they look as good with non-HID headlights, even those with Silverstars or other "whiter" aftermarket bulbs....

i used to have the 55w bulbs before one of them blew out on me after like 3 months.... but anyway... i posted this a long time ago...but here goes.... dont be fooled by some of the pictures.... my bulbs shone very very yellow on the ground in front of the car.... but when i went outside to look directly at the fogs... they weren't that yellow... SLIGHTLY yellower than the stock fogs... the first picture in this guy's second group of pics probably most accurately shows what the lights really look like... dont go by the side view or the reflection on the ground.... however... his are 85w, not sure how much difference that would make over mine, but the 55w wasn't that great..

i bought mine from danielstern lightning company.... shipped fast...cheapest prices i could find...

I emailed them about H3 harness and this is what they said

"just a generic type that will need to be connected using terminals, cost is $35 + $8 shipping. use paypal info below"

Not sure if it means that we have to slice any wires or just direct plug in.

I got just installed a pair of the PIAA crystal Ions and they aren't that yellow when you look at them. They do however, put out a yellow light that can be seen from your drivers seat. I think that those Narva's look better. However, the best plan sounds like the yellow lens and the hid H3. Where is the info for this?

Nice. You should put the yellow lamin-x protective films over the fogs with your Narvas for an even yellower light.

lamin-x protective films

Well, I just ordered some of the lamin-x protective films yellow for my Max's Fogs. Not to bad of a price $21.95. Not only will it protect the fogs from cracking, I will get the usage of a legitimate fog light during nasty weather.
