How happy are you with your fogs & which do you have?
When I first got the car did not like stock fogs output because the H.I.D were so bright, but when i got my angel eyes the stock fogs were just fine for driving at sunset time, i may have turn on my headlamps about 10x this summer, cause I always drive with my angel eyes they look so good. Stock bulbs! So far so good no cracks no blow outs!! (knock on wood)

I had the PIAA Ion Crystal on my Max, and they were ok, but burned out more than I liked. I'm running Luminics JDM Yellow fogs now, and they're much better. A few bucks cheaper and much more yellow.
Im running stock fog lights & bulbs i got from Courtesy. So far theyve been good to me but ive only had them a few months. Does anyone know if i can run stock housings with yellow bulbs? If so what brand and where can i get them. I want that IS300 look.
I have the Optilux halo/angel eye driving lights installed in mine.. I do like them though I have them off (just halos on) most of the time unless I need them and don't have oncoming traffic to deal with.
They were like 60 bucks for the pair.

6000k hids in stock housings. very nice but lots of glare.

tsx projector retrofit with 4300k hids in stock housings
perfect imo, no glare due to cutoff beam, wish i had a pic of them on, but they're stock tsx projos so im sure there are plenty of pics of those.

Had:
- PIAA Xtreme Whites or whatever they were, halogen bulbs:

- Helios 6000k mini H3 35w HID kit, miss these a lot but the kit had problems:

Now:
- DDMTuning 6000k H3 55w HID kit, not as pretty as the Helios, but more light on the ground:

i put them in the fogs because of the cutoff beam, i do actually get some bad fog by me(i live along a large river and early mornings can be nasty) and with projos and running just fogs and parking lights i can see very well. and i got the tsx projectors for a good deal but i thought they'd look kinda small in the headlights and they lined up into the fogs very easily so i thought id try them out. it was a very easy retrofit and very minor bumper mods, just a little trimming between the two top push mounts. im very happy with them. i'm suprisied i haven't seen more like it
i matched them up with 6000k low beams and 6000k hid high beams with front reflector delete. all wired so i run them all together if needed. i think its a good setup.
the only problem ive run into is that the stock fog wiring on my car is very thin and oxidized i had to cut back a bit to get fresh wire for splicing. my car has 80k.

good luck with everything
I was looking at that same kit. Where did you get your harness from?
mini h1 projectors in mine, SHO's are probably aimed better lol
I haven't used mine in two years since there are cracks and holes in mine. I did like it when they did work. I had PIAA H3 super whites. Gotta save up and buy some new ones.
real nice looking, how u guys have your fogs on and low beams off, i have a 5 gen and my car doesnt do that in order for me to have the fogs on i need to have the headlights on, its really gay and i dont really like it. I looked at the wire diagram it too complicated and almost impossible to set it up like u guys have - headlights off when the fogs on, please if anyone knows how to how to set it up like i want to let me know, jus inbox me, thank you
