LOL...

I've heard several stories of the bulb being too close to the fog lens and either melting or discoloring them...just hear say though, no factual experience.

RE: fog light change
Hi, I have hid's on my fog fortes. Like Kenny says, the bulb is a little too close to the plastic lens. In my case, It started to make a little white circle in the middle of the lens. Had to deseal the fog and clean it. I removed the little plastic cap to let the heat evacuate the chamber of the fog. Since then, no problem at all, but we're in winter cold here. May be the problem will be back this summer.

And for those who are against the hid's, it's your opinion, but remember you have ajustement on your headlights. You must adjust them that you see the end of the light on the road. No body flashes their light at me when they cross me. My lights are down the road and not in sky Tongue But most of people install them and doesn't check at all the adjustement. My girlfriend didn't make any change to her car concerning the headlights, and I had to drop down the lights because the OEM adjustement was too high, so imagine if we put hid's without adjusting something out .... For sure the hid's is too bright for the others cars. You have to know what you're doing when you make mods on your car Smile

But I respect all of your opinions Smile Cheers everybody

RE: fog light change
People are trying to talk about it; they say that HID light and fog light are two good to use. However, I've go for the fog that has a good condition while installing the light. And it can be a nice way to use the fog because of the best feature of it.
