I may have missed it, but how are you guys wiring the fog to go on without the headlights? I like that look as I had it on two other of my cars.

Cameron - No, not at all. I think if you added a couple more, you'd be in rice territory.

As far as the rest of your post goes. I take it, it's that tweeter or whatever?

But that's funny man, I sat and looked at the pic like I was missing something!

Yea, I my SS and C6 came stock like that. I can't remember if my 4V Cobra was like that or not, it's been several years since I owned that car.

But yea man, that is a really cool look. The problem with my car is that I have the HID headlights, but stock looking fogs. Looks stupid.

They really don't look THAT bad imo. But it's like these current gen owners say... to get em' to match you got to buy the same manufacturer low beam and fog.

Makes me want to install ddez.

I posted you one on the southeast thread.

Don't know what to call this thread thread.

Ddes, inho, are the angel eyes.

On only when this mod is done and fogs are on with low beams.

Ah, I see.

Well, I love the car man. You look like you take great pride in it, and it shows. Modding is an addiction isn't it?
