Default (fits 97s) custom yellow projector fogs..GET THAT GOLDEN YELLOW OUTPUT!!!!!!!

so.......... after taking forever working on these, ive decided im ready to move on to something new. these were a pain in the *** to make:

theyre 98+ intrepid fog light housings with 92+ es300 fog light internals.

the fog light projectors are ACTUALLY yellow, the yellow projector + 3000k hids make the light output extremely yellow instead of that greenish color... not much to say besides its a project that took me like 4 hours or more of dremeling...



asking price = 165 shipped
i RECOMMEND using HIDs with this setup, would be easier.
if you want JUST the es300 projectors from the setup ill part those out for 60 shipped.


if youre thinking geez greens14, your prices are usually ridiculously low! why are you asking a reasonable price for this setup? its cause i spent 4-6 hours using a dremel and mocking random things up.



with that said these arent perfect, but they are fully functional i.e. housing can be opened removing two screws, they can be mounted permanently or using zipties, the cut off isnt perfect but its an output improvement



heres the link to all the hell i went through making them starting on PAGE 2:

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/lig...rned-them.html



fitment pics:

















the light output:

say to daytime lighting on camera:





set to auto lighting on camera:




cut off lines are far from perfect but theyre ok:







and the fogs themselves : note the screws that act as latch for housing. silicone is to prevent leaking or condensation around hids:















and thats all folks if you have any questions or want to tackle this project yourself instead of buying it from me, feel free to pm me, i have no problem sharing info! if you want to buy just the es300 fogs and try a different retrofit, thats fine also


also have one beat up 97 pass fog for sale, 40 shipped

OH! and to answer mounting questions ...almost forgot that..... im way too much of a ***** to compromise my 97 bumper for a fog light setup so the fog lights are just "snapped in" then reinforced with zipties.

I will say the ES Projectors + Intrepid fogs makes it look much more OEM. Like it's styled with the IS3's.
