HID fog light conversion

Postby GarLaf » Fri May 02, 2008 6:22 pm

Has anyone looked into converting the facelift fogs into HIDs? Since I changed my dipped beams the fog lights look terrible, I have HID fog lights on the RX8 and they look good as they are the same as the head lights.

Just change the fogs/parking lights to something like Philips Bluevision bulbs. Colour should be a fairly close match albeit not as bright as HIDs.

Can't remember if the facelifts have "sidelights" or "driving lights" but if you do I'd recommend the "white" or "ultrawhite" led sideligts - replaced mine there relatively recently and they're a much better match for HIDs.

facelifts have the parking lights in the main headlight unit.
