I am about to change foglight bulbs. I originally had the stockers in my car when I picked it up last year. Wasn't bright enough. So I got a set of the yellowfoglight bulbs from texonstore.com. They are holding up great and work fine. But I am growing out of the JDMness of them. I want a different color. Perhaps a bright white or a light blueish color. I really want to do it now because I got LED side marker bulbs that I paid a small fortune for from ByVampDesign.com and they are a bright white with a tad bit of blue hue, but they look sick!

Here is a pict before I got the LED sidemarkers, gives you an idea of the 3k yellow bulbs and the 4300k HID kit with the headlights. You can see the yellow a bit better on the right headlight dues to the angle of the picture.


The SRT-4 foglight bulb is a 893 by the way. I went back to the the texonstore and saw these:

They offer them in a 893 too. Never seen these before on a car yet.

Anyone have any expierence with them?

Or I could go with these at a lot cheaper price:

Comments/ideas welcome.


thanks!

Those are interesting I haven't seen them before. My question would be are they wide enough to actually reflect light or will it just be a direct beam.

I might have to be the test bunny.

I dont think the light output is gonna be good for LED
my friend has leds in his tails and you see them but they dont reflect as good as a bulb or a HID

Yeah thats my thing, unless its a seriously strong wide angle LED you aren't going to get much light output from them, but if they are cheap enough give em a go!

$55... I guess I am gonna have to google them and see them installed. I bet some Honda's have em installed.

The other plug and plays I listed are only $15. Well I don't really care too much for the light output. I have HID headlights that take care of that. I just want something that looks bright, cool and different. :S

it will probably look cool but dont depend on it for fogtlight output but yeah they will light up and work Lol

Heres a sweet video I found. Damn I wish I could do something like this with my car!

The foglights are composed of only LED lights!

They don;t really produce any lumens.

See below.

It would be pretty nice, but like people said above, light output would be minimal. I'd rather put in some colored halogen bulbs to get a blue color with some light output, over a LED fog with almost no output.

All that BMW has is multi colored Halos. Buy the projector foglights with halo and put two bulbs in them instead of one, a white and an amber, then use two switches to power them. CCL makes halos in different sizes/colors to use in headlights as well.

^ That would be sweet. But uhhh no offense I am not really a fan of the projectors, probably because I have a silver car.

I think you are right. I posted this on other forums and they are saying it will look bright, but it won't really push out any light.

Well lol you said you wished you could do it to your car I just gave you an option as to how. Why don't you like them? You don't like the way they would look on a silver car?

They look good at night, but the design of them is just too far out there and wouldn't look that clean during the day with no lights on.

I ordered the $15 bulbs too btw. Texonstore has good stuff, I had bought my yellow ones from them and they are holding up great.

you would be suprised at how wide one of those can be. I have seen them on another forum and they are bright as crap! They put them in a retrofitted projector for their fogs and it looks great. I will try to find that thread again and post it up on here.
