Those appear to be good quality
Are you going to install them yourself? if so, please make it a professional looking job!

anyone put 3000k HID's in there fogs yet?

cali yaris · 06-20-2007, 12:36 PM

If these are the ones put out by Vertex Racing -- it's a PITA to install them.
The pics from your eBay link sure look like the kit I bought.

I just installed these on my car, here were the problems.
Remember this is for the VERTEX RACING fogs:

1. Absolutely no instructions provided.
2. No provision for a fuse provided.
3. black plastic housing is a crappy fit with separation areas from the bumper.
4. Switch does NOT fit OEM cutout (under the e-brake), had to custom cut my own hole.
5. No way to wire so the switch only illuminates when the fogs are on, my switch illumination is always-on.

The good news, nice and BRIGHT, great price, look fine from a distance.

I used ILLUMINICS 2500k JDM yellow bulbs -- nice bright yellow fogs!

I'll post some pics later.

I recommend sending a PM to Jimcat on the forums. His price is $79.99 and I've seen some of the installs people have done on them and ordered one myself. I'll take pictures of the package and after I get them installed then I'll give a better review of the product.

[QUOTE=cali yaris;100280]4. Switch does NOT fit OEM cutout (under the e-brake), had to custom cut my own hole.QUOTE]

The 4 holes each have different notches so teh switch can ONLY fit the right rear hole. The other holes can be used with minor modifications.

Sweetness. I want to locate my fog light switch next to the gauge cluster brightness control which is suppose to be for the automated mirror control but I don't have automatic mirror control (so sad) so I want to try putting it there

eijikikimaru · 06-21-2007, 12:12 AM

I too got mine from JimCat.

I'm currently don't have them wired up because I don't have time except Saturdays. (neighbors complain on weekdays. Something about making the area look cheap. They love to bi+(h, but I don't want to get kicked out cause rent is hella cheap >.<)

I'm going to try to make a clean installation where you can wire it up w/ the fuse instead of splicing wires. I'll post pictures when I get around to it.
