FYI the 1000x is a kit, so if you guys just want new bulbs get the PIAA Extreme White H3 bulbs - they plug right into the OEM fog light housing..

If you want the bright ones like he has, look for the Extreme White ones that have the 110w rating on them.. There's three models: 70w, 85w, and 110w..

I don't know if the 110w will work with the OEM fog light housing (might be too hot and could melt it) but the 70w and 85w ones should be ok as that is what most people on this board have bought when they buy PIAA H3 bulbs..

Wow - they look very bright, but out of place when you see them in daylight. Astheticly (sp?), the OEM ones look better.

I think it looks tight, but it could have been a bit bigger to fill in the gaps...

well thx for all of the input guys. and yes they are a housing and they are a pain in the **** to install. but i think that they look really good, of course they are much smaller, but hey, they're a lot brighter...so that evens out for me. but i got mine for $230, but retail for around $400...and about 4 hours for the install, but i'm really **** about my car, so it might take you less...

anyway, beyond that, i haven't done or painted anything else on my car. so that answers that. but once again, thx for the input and the next time you're blinded and see a maxima driving by, you'll know who it is...

I refrained from commenting on the day shots because they were kinda ooglie in that there was a lot of extra space in the OEM hole, but those night shots...those seem to make it all worth it. Nice!
