NewLoveI30

Go check with the 5th Gen Maxima guys. The 00-01's came with a similar style glass lensed fog.

I believe that they had to actually cut their fogs apart to install the capsule.

thanks

Like I said earlier, I don't remember where I got them from. I bought 'em a couple years ago and just got around to installing them (don't have the packaging either).

I do know that I did not get them from HIDtech. They never responded once to my e-mails so I googled forever elsewhere to buy them.

ok thanks.

I just paypal'd thirty some dollars to HID Tech with a note saying it was for the 9006 Lexus yellow capsules. I received them a few days later. Unfortunately I dont remember the exact amount (this was quite some time ago).

You might want to try searching the Max forums for the info. I know I got the price with shipping somewhere on here.


Sorry I cant be more help, but they are the 9006 capsules that you need.

Congrats on the fogs.....I wish I had a 5th gen, because the only way to open 4th gen I30 fogs is to dremel them, because they are held together using engine glue stuff, which can't be heated and removed.

I have two yellow fog capsules for sale....$30 shipped....

You still have these?

Im interested.

Will it work on my 2000 I30?

Also, can Meta or anyone provide a "How-To" when it comes to installing them?

Thanks,

Omar

No how-to needed, really. Just remove the lenses from the license plate lights and see what you have to work with. It's not really a drop-in solution. You have limited depth to work with unless you cut some new lenses. The LED units I used were wired in-line with the voltage regulator and inline with the exiting wiring back there. Just figure out the best way to fit the LEDs you want to use in the cavities and then hook up the + and - wires and you're there.

Oh sorry to confuse you.

I was talking about the yellow capsule.

I would like to do this mod I tried doing a search but no luck is there a website to by the lights and install instruction?

Thanks

Wow. Blast from the past.

I found the how-to on the capsules with a Google search:

I used that for the most part I think.

Of course you want to order "HIR 3000K-3500K Yellow All Weather"


There is a problem with the rigid metal wire on this particular bulb shorting out in the fog light reflector. I baked the housing and took the lens off to bend the reflector back far enough but it might be simpler just to push a screwdriver through the hole. PM me if you need help with it.

this is an old thread... I made my fog lights yellow with a HID kit. It was enexpensive, looks good and not hard to install. same H3 sized bulbs but with ballast. If you do a search on here you can find a couple write ups on how to install them, makes it very easy. I only spent $60 on my kit and am happy with it
