Fog shots

I rarely post pictures of my car, but Im bored and felt like it...

That being said, here are some shots of my yellow fogs I just installed, along with the clear corners and AE'd headlights. 100W in each bulb, definitely the way to go. Drunkie told me which ones to get, got them on ebay for $8.50 shipped to my apartment.

HIDs in Halogen housings is FTL

Project retros can be done now for around $300...which isn't too bad.

I would flash them right back at you, and then what would you do?

Rewire your bumper lights. It'd look cleaner. Personally, I just rerouted the sidemarker light's wires and tapped them into the fronts.

Be careful of the bulbs that draw more wattage than stock, they will either a) burn out quickly or b) melt the harness.

If they melt the harness, then Ill just have to make a new harness to pull straight from the battery like my 9007's do.

And the amber 194's are on the to-do list.

Enervine, are you talking about switching the inner and outter bumper light wires?

100w bulbs don't have draw amperage wise to do any damage

That's what I thought but my Nokia Yellow Fogs burnt out after a couple months, and my ultra white 9004 luminics melted my harness. I'm not saying that it's not a great deal, just be wary.

Regardless I loved the way the yellow fogs looked on my 4th gen, especially with a rewire.
