Default F-Sport Fog lights

I bought these today from eBay, they look better than the ones from jdmtoy or whatever it's called. I'll let you guys know how they turn out to be once I get them

Yeah pics of beam pattern would be nice, pics over all would be nice. Hate the cone like beam patter and yellowish hue of the jdmtoy ones.

Wow. Directly copy mold of the OEM JDM. Nice. Only difference I see is the connector plug

I have the original JDM so Ive the real up close and compared to these pictures, it's damn close.

Only thing now is the color and beam pattern

these look very nice, might need to pick up this set. do you need to buy any extra harnesses / switches?

can you elaborate on any other differences?

if anything, just having it look there's something there instead of nothing makes the appearance better, LOL

and also, if the optics are bad, couldn't the mold be used as a baseline for doing a retrofit with better components?

Default Got the lights today

I think they're made by Spyder. They came on a Spyder box. The lights look similar to the JDM except that you can tell they're made of cheaper material. They used a aplastic casing that looks like the JDM and it seem as they retrofit a smaller glass projector fog ligh inside it. The box is sealed with silicone so I can't see what kind of LED or projector it has. It comes with a wiring harbes and the adapter for out Fsports. I'm gonna try and install this today or tomorrow.
I looked in my car to see if there is any pre wiring for fog lights and found 5 loose wires, maybe somone can help me identify them? Here are some pictures
