Custom HID Projector Foglights!

I really hate to see these go because I spent a lot of time making them. If you're like me and want some crazy bright fog lights what won't blind other drivers, or destroy the stock headlights cut off line, then you'll really like these.

Custom made 5000k HID projector fog lights. These use potted OEM ballasts. (I painted one black... siliconed the other) These denso ballasts are top notch, the same ones that are used in the RX-8 from the factory. The ballast are mounted to the oil cooler brackets. The brackets are included with the fogs.

The projectors are Hella Micro DE's. They are known for their extremely wide spill. So wide that tThese will light the sidewalk up as you drive down the street.... just look at the pictures!

Words can't discribe how badass these are!

PRICE: $275 + shipping


Buyer pays paypal fees if using a credit card. No fee for checking account or paypal balance transfer.

1st dibs! I'm interested, but what are the dimensions because I need to see if they will fit my aftermarket bumper. Thanks.

Well, they mount just like the stock fog lights. It comes with the brackets.

They stick back into the fender well farther than stock, if that's what you're worried about, I can measure it for you.

I have louvers that I custom made which could block the projector. Since they are the De's, which are very small, could I mount them with a different bracket to fit better? I may try the stock bracket in the next day or so. Thanks.

Someone asked my if the wiring needed to be upgraded. -No, it doesn't.

You do not need to change the wiring, but you will have to upgrade the fuse from a 15amp to 20amp because the initial start-up draw of hids is big. Once they are running they draw less then the oem halogen lights. I'll include two 20amp fuses, the extra is in case you screw up.

I'm not really taking dibs... first to pay gets them.
