RollLexGS This mod would not work on an 2002 hs?
Yeah. These fog light upgrade will not work on them High School girls.

But.....it would surely work for 2002 GS. Same oem bumper from 98-02.

af1c331 Looks like this project is going to be a little more complicated and costly than I was hoping. The bulbs are VERY different in size. Thanks for the input!

I will try to see if the HIDs will fit the fixture this weekend.
Yeah, just the fixture is $70-$80 add $60 for two cheap sets of HID's or more. It will set you back $130 for the cheapest route or $150 if you buy the relay and what not.

Nice write up bro! Doing this soon!! One question though, on your wiring, i see you have a separate switch to flip the fog lights on? Couldn't you wire it to the oem and use the stick switch by the steering wheel? Unless that ebay harness you linked on your diagram will do that with "slight" wire hacking...

I did wired it to the oem switch. I made a harness like the harness from eBay. Just connect the yellow wire to the positive on the oem fog light wire. I just stuck in the wire into the connector and taped it up well. Don't splice or hack up the oem wires or the eBay harness.

Knock off TTE lip off eBay.

I will try to get some pictures this weekend. its going to be raining in SanJose this weekend.=(

the bumper did take the shape of the fixture. the body shop would do a better jo,b and can fill in the spots with filler.

Only way i see to get clear lens is buy 2 sets non halo and swap them. then resell the blue set.
