Well, most guys here are concerned with lighting as a visual mod.

My fogs could project Hundred dollar bills as a beam and i think i'd still leave them off.

Stop pissing off redlude.

he's got issues with light and them shining properly.
I think he was abused by a flash light when he was little or something.




just get your self a proper H4 bulbs and you be alright.

I got these in my fogs and they are very nice.
Almost same color as my Philips 60k HID bulbs
and when they are off the blue color of the bulb reflect and makes it look like your reflectors are blue. Looks cool.

Also, you got a pic of your car with them?

they cost like $50 got it at a local ricer joint

lemme find pix


found couple of pix with the light off




you see how the reflector is all blue cuz of the bulb color.


here is the link for their site
http://www.visionxusa.com/halogen/bulbs/
Click on H4 tab and then select VX-HH4 that is the 80/100 Watt bulb, that's the one you want.

and by clicking on "Buy it now" you can find online retailers or fill out a form to find a local retailer (kind of a gay feature )

Running an 80/100W bulb in a 55W housing and wiring would not be advisable

Bout a year running and wiring still nice and wired.


normal running wattage is 80 it's only 30 more watts so is no bid deal
It's not like I'm driving with H-beam on all the time.

let me get this out of the way so everyone can see this once and for all.

Stock halogens reflectors = DO NOT PUT HID's THERE.

Plain and simple.
