Morning bump! Comments added. The wiring is not finished. Hopefully I can finish the wire job after work and then go find some fog (shouldn't be hard!) to take some pics with the lights on. Stay tuned!

Well in the middle the had the most clearance from the grill. If I would have mounted them on the outsides they would have pushed the grill mesh out. They just plain ol didn't fit that way. I did aim the lights slightly out and down. These lights have a very wide (95 degree IIRC) beam. We will see if they actually work for fog, I am pretty confident about it but maybe I am just being too optimistic. Time will tell!

STi=no stock fog switch. I am using a blank (where my light level adjustment and IC Sprayer button are). I will sink the PIAA button in flush on the blank so it looks really close to stock. That is the next hurdle!

Ah dremels FTW. Is there s decent beam cut off? If I remember right? you should check the beam 9ft away from a wall or something to aim them and postion them properly. Hopefully they will broadcast enough light to serve your purpose.

Once wired up I will aim them like this, thnx for the info. I hope they cut the fog too, I will let you guys know, good bad and ugly! From what I have read these lil lights pump some serious lumens out!

Drum roll..............................



hahaha just playin. Crap camera but you get the idea.

This was about 7'-9' away from my garage door.

Just fogs



HID Low Beams



HID Low Beams and Fog Lights



Halogen High Beams



Halogen High Beams wit /fog Lights




All in all the camera doesn't do these lights any justice. They are phenomenal little fog lights. Worth EVERY penny imo, and I haven't runt them in any fog yet.


to be continued......................in fog.
