Default Corner "Nike" and Fog Light Replacement Pics

I've had this done for a couple months now just havent had time to take some pics. I had the corner "nike" light replaced with some LED's I got from Japan and replaced the stock fogs with some new bulbs that burn to a closer color to the stock HID's.

It was sprinkling when I was taking these pics...

That looks real cool, good job. Was it hard accessing the nike lights? I haven't attempted to look under the engine shroud covers. Are the light bulbs only accessible through the wheel well or from the top?

I didnt do it myself, but I know for sure the front bumper has to come off. Last time I took it to the dealer they did it for me.

Not sure on how many LED's in each bulb. I bought these lights almost a year ago. Let me dig through my emails to see where I bought each set. The LED's are from Japan and I think they ran me around 125 and the fogs were 40-60. The fogs are definitely halogen.

I'm on my way to work but will sift through my email.

The top one is Piaa-H376... that helps a lot!

Product page from Autobacs:
http://www.autobacs.com/shop/g/g4960311238744/

The bottom pic looks like the regular 9006/9007...

Which set you put in for the Nike light? Top or bottom??

edit:
Autoback removed their web link, here is another link to Piaa manufacturer:

From the list above, the Nike light would be:

Parking light
2825

which also cross references to the (194, 168, T10, 158) style number bulbs as seen here http://www.retrosolutionsllc.com/ser...94-1.5W/Detail

The PIAA part number doesn't correspond with the bulb type, but we know exactly which one to buy, so thank you for posting up those pics!!

The factory bulb type for fogs is 9006, which is a very common headlight bulb as well. The 9007's are quite a bit different, so you will always want to get a 9006 style bulb for your fogs.

Other Nike light LED options:

http://store.ijdmtoy.com/Canbus-Euro..._t10_sku26.htm
http://www.v-leds.com/Interior-LED/G...04828-1-2.html

and I'm sure a ton of other places. Those PIAAs look really good tho!!
