Lights!

Ok, I am guessing that the sidemarkers and the clearance strips are not too blue to get me pulled over, but what I am not real happy with is the PIAA H4's for the fog lights. They still have kind of a sickly white glow about them. What others are out there that I can use instead? Obviously, they can't be as bright as the headlights, but I would like something closer than these.

And I know what it looks like, but no those are not scratches on the bumper

Re: Lights!

thanks. Those MTEC's might do the trick. The PIAA H4's are 4150 I think. I would like to get them to match the headlights exactly, but I am guessing that that is a no go.

Re: Lights!

I installed Piaa's extreme whites with my clear corners..I think they were around $11 a pair these are the bulb type not the LED
I will put these in the clearance strip as well when I install the new H4's....I'm still not sure which bulb I will go with
since its such a hassle to install I don't want to have to replace these lights every 4 months!!!
right now I'm leaning towards the Catz aqua whites....
I talked w/afropuff and he said they held up good so far...
like him I use my fog/highs all the time when driving so Its important for me to get something that will hold up in the long run.....<font color=blue>2old4this</font color=blue>
I purchased the Piaa extreme whites @ www.importperformancewarehouse.com

Re: Lights!

Are the PIAA extreme whites burning out that quick?

Re: Lights!

Shader: that's what I'm talkin bout there! that bottom pic is what I am trying to accomplish. The PIAA H4's did not seem to do the trick. You used the ones that you have in the pic below the lamp pics?

Re: Lights!

I forgot to ask this question: where did you get the TR504's from?

Re: Lights!

To match fog lights with HIDs, can we not go to an Infiniti dealer and buy some replacement stock HID bulbs and swap them into the fog light slot? Seems like a simple solution to make a complete match......is this possible?
