Fog lamps question
Fog lamps question
Has anyone out there installed fogs on a 3rd gen that dont belong to a 3rd gen? even from a completely different nissan or other auto maker? I'm looking for PICTURES of someone who has, because I want flush-mounted fogs on my 3rd gen. Stock ones just stick out too much...Photos photos photos.....thanks

Lack of light + dodgey phone camera = no detail.. but you get the general idea.
These lights were picked up from Autobahn (popular aussie car parts and accessories chain) ... lovely pure white light from them.. very happy.
if you want to know the model / brand, i'll report back with more details.

I think those Hellas that MrRose has fit the bill pretty well.
If you are going to be that picky, grab a ruler, measure your fogs then go to every place that sells fogs and find the ones that are about the same size.

I gave the car away so getting some pics would not be an option. I can tell you that the beam is straint and concentrated(narrow V). At 100 yards the beam spreads 15 yards either way. Lets just say, they light up the NIGHT like no body's business...

This picture shows exactly what I experienced with my 550s. Notice the pattern of the head lamps(wide V), the the patternt of the HELLA 550s (Narrow V). Notice how the small white object in front of the car is picked up by the stock head lamps, and the distance the Hellas get. I totally liked mine.
When I get another MAX, I'll put them on again.
Right now I am placing the round styles on my Z...

I had the FOG style at first, and did not like it, becuae the beam was too far to the left and right. The stock loghts do that, so I wanted to see farther out in front of me.

Wiking had a lot of info to share, but at times he was a bit long winded. I have no idea what exactly was said to him. He should at least pop in once and a while to say hi.

Wiking got bothered by the fact that we felt brakes are something you actually need in a car
seriously that was the end of his posting.
