Nice! I just picked a set of these in H4 for my G35c fogs/highs. Haven't installed them yet, but from all pics they seem way more yellow than the PIAA Crystal Ions I had in my old Max. Decided on this instead of the yellow capsules, since I've heard of them shattering

sorry to hear the delay on the luminics bulbs...just to let you know, it will be WORTH the wait...these bulbs are awesome especially when you rewire your fogs...and roll around town during dusk hrs

I ordered mine from a guy on eBay. Waiting for them now. I was pushed away from the main website due to all the talk on here. I'll post pics when I get them, hope they look as good on a 2000.

Mine arrived from an eBay seller, installed along with the Ultra Violet H4's. Beautiful. Even my girlfriend noticed.

I took some pics but can't find my cord to download them. I'll put them up soon.

I can't get a good shot of my lights, but this was in my garage at dusk. Not the best pic. I think they look really good! I'll try to take some better ones tonight after I wash the beast.

it's not as easy as a 4th gen...i'll tell you that....and its also a good idea to jack up the whole front end to get better clearance...its nearly impossible for me to reach the splash guard nuts without jacking up the car...heres a quick write up

1. Jack up the car nice and high...get as much clearance to work comfortably if this is your first time doing it...put jack stands
2. There are about 3-4 nuts that hold the splash guards in place...you will need to locate them since I dont have a picture...they are all 10mm
3. Take off splash guard...You now see the foglight connector...unplug this
4. Remove two 10mm nuts holding the foglight housing to the bumper
5. Pop out the housing thru the back of the bumper...
6. Remove old H3 bulb, its only held on by a small clip...then you unplug the connector and swap bulbs...

It took me about 30-45 mins total. Just look at this write up. It tells you exactly what to do..
http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2076435/2

If you have ramps or jackstands, they help out a ton. Get a light under their too. It was harder to get the passenger side light out because of the washer fluid resivoir.

The yellow looks a lot brighter in person, and I think I aimed them up too high.

if you know what your doing, changing the fogs can take about 10 min, its really simple, but i always have problems getting the fog lenses back in the bumper.

just finally got these in, they look pretty good. in the day time they look about as yellow as my old stock fogs on my acura. i'm actually really excited to see how these do in snow/fog... i've always liked yellow fogs more because they tend not to reflect as much light.

i'll try and get pics tonighth with the headlights

i didn't order mine directly from luminics... i ordered mine from automotivelightingusa.com... they were very quick, shipped next day (i ordered around 10 at night), got here yesterday. (friday -> tuesday, CA-> CT). also, i don't know if they still have it, but there was free shipping on orders of 25 or more.

did you read my post on page 5.....customs let them pass through over the weekend, he processed them on monday, and most likely they went out tuesday as most companies were still off on monday.
technically, they're still on schedule and should arrive anywhere from today into this weekend, depending on how far you are.
