Be sure it has the blueish tint. my first pair that i bought was too white (although it looked blue before it was lit up), and not worth it. i bought another pair that was more blue, and they compliment my HIDs well.
VegasRX330,

What brand are your fog lights?

4 screws/bolts is all it takes to get to the back of the foglight. i have the headlamp washers and i still did it. so simple. i changed all my bulbs to blue/white ones to match the hid ones. if anyone wants i can post the pics i took of this mod with explanations.

Can PIAA lights be purchased off the shelf anywhere, or do you have to order them online? I'm looking specifically in the Northern Va. area. I wouldn't know where to look other than the obvious, i.e. Advance Auto, etc. But they did not have them.

thx

I'm from Northern VA also. I got my bulbs from Auto Express in Centreville. I tried the PIAA Xtreme White...they definitely are NOT extreme White...they look as yellow as the factory...same with the DRL's. I am getting different ones now and am picking them up this weekend. I will let you know which ones and how they look.

Wow, that is disappointing considering the price, and the other favorable reviews that I've read. What about the HB GT-x Super Plasma? Those are supposedly rated higher on the kelvin scale (close to 5000) .
Well, please do let us know how the other ones turn out, take pictures too if you can

Thanks for sharing the pictures....but that seems like a lot of work just to get to the fog lights.
