from WI back to IL!

I was with my fiancee in the day, so all the day shots are in Wisconsin, then went back home around evening and snapped a few shots there so all the night shots are in Illinois.
I'm pretty happy considering I'm very new to DSLR, and I didn't use any photo-editing software such as photoshop or lightroom, etc.

I think it's his parking lights that are on.

I used to drive all the time between WI and IL to visit my GF.

Those are city lights? I thought city lights were on the outer edge of the headlight, in other words the outside strip that runs from top to bottom. In that pic above I could clearly see 1. Headlight 2. Parking Light (on bumper) 3. Blinker light 4. Strip light on outer edge of headlight and the only one not coming in too clear was number 5. Foglight, but that's because it's on.... or at least I figured it to be.

city lights is the 194 bulbs that turn on with your side parking lights (side lights on your front bumper). mine are custom made so they shine almost as bright as a regular bulb (brightness is in between halogen and hid I'd say but doesn't light up the road as much as halogen). My fogs were not on in any of the pictures except in this one:


Im actually working on a project on how to run just the just the fogs, it's so far working but is under wraps until I finalize it later on this season. I'll have a DIY later on .

I got a few PMs so I will just answer here.
Yes I have the new JDM clear corners with the bump, they are very noticable in person and imho look best on the coupe. Friend has them on his sedan and eh.

Okay. that's all folks!

ok so did u relocate them into where your fogs are too? zig35 is seeing exactly what i'm seeing. on the picture he posted there is clearly no city light on unless u relocated it (ill rephrase it) under the headlight. sorry for all the questions and confusion. i'm just very curious since i've always wished i could turn the fogs on without the headlights.

I assure it is on.
here is a picture of my lights WITH fogs on. You can see it's much brighter than just my citylights shown above. my fogs are hid 7k.



trust me I'd know if my fogs are on independently
I am doing a DIY on how to run fogs independently, I should have a tutorial up once it's finalized within the next month or so. and it's no problem man, I'll do my best to help you out in any way possible.

To clarify, only the 03-04 coupes have the clearance strip light, if thats what you're thinking about. Mine is an 06. the 05 and 06 coupes do not have the side clearance strip light that you may be talking about. The 05/06 coupes could have the clearance strip lights if you choose to mod your headlights, but I for one think it looks cleaner without it.

example of a clearance strip light (that I do not have):
