Hi guys, sorry that some of you are having trouble with our LED fog lights. Please take into consideration that these fog lights are not just the garnish cover, but have a pretty substantial LED inside that increases the weight.

We advise customers to pull in the tabs from the back with one hand and to use their other hand to simultaneously push in the fog lights from the front to fully lock and secure the tabs. We haven't had any more issues with customers who have tried this method of securing the fog lights.

If you have any questions or comments, you can PM me directly and i'll help you guys out.

I read in the instructions that the fog lights tap into the drl wires... Would they stay on all the time as long as the drls are on?

Is it possible to connect it to the drl so u can turn it on and off with the drl but the fog lights will only have power when the headlights are on? (Hopefully I explained my question correctly)

I have these lights and they only come on with the headlights. Your DRL lights operate as usual and the fogs remain off

When the head lights are on... Can you turn them off by turning off the drl? Also did u wire your fogs differently then the instructions? Thanks in Advance.

I wired them per the ijdmtoy instructions. Yes they will turn off if the DRL is in the off position

I'll never buy IJDMTOY products again. Less than 3 months and one light went out already. Had 2 days left on my warranty and I was told on the phone that I had to troubleshoot the light and take pictures for them and fill a form. Then remove the foglight and send it out to them and have it in their possession in a day and a half. If not, the warranty won't cover it. I then tried to contact them to order a new driver side fog light to replace the broken one. The first time, someone told me that I had to fill out a special order form for it. I did what they said, and never got a response. Then I call again the following week and someone said that they would call me back in the same day, no later than a day after with prices and all. Still no call. I then call for the third time, and someone (sounds like the same guy everytime) puts me on hold and goes and gets the price for me. He then tells me it takes 2 weeks since it's being ordered from overseas. I asked if they warranty the item since I'm buying it brand new. He tells me no. It's considered a spare part so they won't warranty it. They said all spare part sales are final. I'm paying $100 for one light, which is brand new. And it's considered a special order. But no warranty for it. Doesn't sound good at all that they can't back up their product. The fact that I already had one go out makes me skeptical about paying $100 (full price) to pay for another light that they won't even back up with a warranty. NEVER AGAIN. Sorry for the rant. Just thought I'd throw it out there.

So they couldn't replace it under warranty and u had to buy a replacement? Dang.... I was leaning towards buying these fog lights too. Maybe if they increase the warranty to one year it would be better. Guess it's best to go with oem.

Yeah... You'd think they warranty LED's for a year or something like that. Maybe they know their product's lifespan isn't consistent or something. I don't know. My last purchase from them, though. Gonna try to fix it myself now.

Well this blows. Installed professionally couple weeks ago by highly reputable shop in SoCal. Third day driving car. Someone was driving next to me waving. Here I am thinking they like the car. Entire fog assembly hanging off car. Bouncing off ground. Lens ****ed. Cover trashed. Getting to work now, pics in a couple of hours. Driver side fog of course.
