thumbs up to going through with the project

Definitely unique...if I went through with the same mod, I don't think I'd use blue bulbs though. overall..cool stuff.

um, let us know when you get a sitation for blue lights okay? i just know around here I wouldn't make a block w/ them. very cool none the less.

i would check your fogs to see if you fully secured them. one might not be totally in.

Good job...whats with the blue bulbs though? I think I would go for some hyperwhite or even superplasmas for the bulb.

I would have went with a different color bulb. Too many fines and too many court appearances for the blue bulbs.

A "How to" write up would be much appreciated here. Looks simple enough. Wire from the battery to the relay. Run the trigger wire from the relay to a switch in the cabin. Then run a + switched line out from the relay to the cornering lights.

Did I miss anything?

it looks hot, but the blue light kinda looks out of place. definitely go with extreme white.

Looks nice. I think instead of replacing the lights i would just throw some illuminators in there. Little neons that is, same effect just not as bright. I have them since i took them out of my old car. I put them in the fogs. Just been debating if i wanted them in the max, i've kinda grown out of the neon phase.

Thats a NYC cops dream come true. It looks cool but they crack downon that sorta stuff here. I am in court for tinted window tomorrow. The cop told me no tint is legal here anymore. You need a permit for it. i have an eye condition and had a doctors letter stating it at the last court date. The judge told me to go to DOT and file for a premit. His wife had too also. Again it looks hot but I hope your a cop .

to wire it up. it is a lot more difficult to do than it is to explain..

i can give basics.. but i dont want to give too much info cuz itll confuse you and you will mess up (like me, car wouldnt start, due to electrical failure) and then the dealer will be all like

fog light wire color ~ WHITE with RED LINE
right corner ~ orange wire with blue line with 2 silver stripes
left corner ~ blue wire with orange line and 2 silver stripes

IF you know what youre doing, you should know what to do from there.

i also hooked it up to the ignition so when the key goes out, the lights go off..

i tried to write out a whole explanation but it was too confusing, and i couldnt even understand it


sorry guys, and i dont know what ima do about the blue..

maybe i will get the hyper white and stick the other bulbs in the grille or use em as the reverse lights or something ill think of something..

is it illegal to have blue reverse lights? =o


sorry i cant help out with the howto, if it were easier i would. sorry...

With the blue light, it looks kind UFO... I would do hyper white to really set it off and not give any second thoughts for cops to get you in trouble.

basically the law states, rear of the car: red running lights, and brake lights, turn signal can be red or amber, and reverse needs to be white. Front of the car: gotta have white headlights, blinkers gotta be amber, and running/fog lights should be amber or white or somewhere in between

...absolutely no red in the front and no blue anywhere. (cannot give the impression of an emergency vehicle ).

so you are required to post in this thread when you are fined.

but again I admit it looks nice, just not legal. even if it was, too flashy for my taste.

I like the look because it almost looks like a set of fogs on the lower part of the bumper. Man cars have fogs down low and ours are built into the headlights so you dont get the cool night driving look. I agree that some extreme whites would be nice.

Were there other colors available? Also, if you don't mind saying, how much did the blue bulbs set you back (and how much was shipping?)?

By the way, I think the blue bulbs looks great - they make quite a statement. It's too bad they aren't legal.

Thanks.
