Default Feed back on ijdm toy fog lights

Looking into it and just would like to know after having them for a while now, how have they stood up. Quality, reliability, stay in place etc. They look nice

do a search, there are plenty of people on here with them.
Reviews are mixed for various reasons. I personally don't like them because of the yellow SMD that is apparent.
Does not look like the OEM fogs to me and that's essentially a deal breaker.
Also, people claim that they blind oncoming traffic due to it not having a focused beam.

I think people tried to make a DIY cutoff for them to mitigate this issue. There is also a non-oem alternative to the ijdmtoy unit on ebay as well that seems to be a replica of the oem that may or may not be better.

Hey guys! Sorry to hear about the fitment issues that you guys are having! We have a new design that is slimmer and the tabs are designed to latch on to the fog lamp location better than before. We heard customers feedback's and changed it up for you guys so if you have any issues please let us know and we will try our best to resolve your issue.

My driver side pops out on every drive. Can ijdm accommodate the customers who already has a set of fogs with the newer version bezel? Me in particular?

Did you have the switch next to the BSM button?
Do the headlights have to be on for them to work?
Do they have the yellow outline that the iJDM's do?

Mine does the same thing. Have you heard from them? I just sent them a message asking that same question
