Changing 2K Fogs - What a PITA!
Changing 2K Fogs - What a PITA!
I just came back to the forums here after a long break - have not posted in several years. I still have the same 2000 SE that I had when I joined the forums 8 years ago!
Anyway, 8 years ago, I changed out the stock fog bulbs and I needed to do it again recently since one of them finally burned out (yes from 8 years ago). Natually I forget the procedure, but remembered it was a royal PAIN to do. I know I did it 8 years ago, but I have not been under my car since then so it was slow going getting those stupid clips out of the wheel well covers. I wish I remembered how those clips worked BEFORE I started prying them out!!! It was cold and windy, and I only managed to do one of the two. I also changed out the headlight bulbs and did those single wide angle colored LEDS on the 4 clear sidemarkers, those look pretty darn good.
Anyway, old member checking back in just to say hello.

fogs
does anyone know where i can find fog bulbs to match the 02 hid head lights?
i am returning the sylvania silverstar h3 bulbs i just bought for 20$ each.
i installed one side to realize they are almost the same brightness as the stock bulbs.
Thanks!
or is anyone familiar with halo projector fog assembles?
