I got my HID's during Simons group buy, the brnd is 'NEWCOMDIGI'.

and i have the 8000 and have never been questioned about them.

SO envy of people posting in this thread......i dont even have foggies

i was talking headlight bulbs, i dont use my foggies in fear of melting the switch

Neither did I till i got some new pods and wired them in. Don't bother if you haven't got them... REALLY not worth the time and $

You will have no drama's with 8000k or 10000k for that matter. Its more 12000k + and the coloured ones.

hey guys i was having a bit of trouble with my fog lights. its a strange case. i bought the car at the end of 08 95 GR nd always believed it didn't have any cause when i twisted the indicator stalk the headlights and parkers would turn on, and when i pressed the button on the dash the parkers would come on. yesturday i removed the whole assemely to polish the lenses and get rid of condensation.

To my suprize there were foggies wooo

any way replaced them cause i thought they were broke nd pressed the buton on the dash...got out the front to c them working nicely then ..... just like that gone simultaneously out

WTF

prob switch mate, common fault on fto

is it possible to just switch them for the parkers and operate them from the stalk? so have no parkers, just the fogs in place of parkers??

of course but would then burn out stalk switch too, as the wire from fogs require heavier duty amps and heat up much more burning out switch

bas, same thing is wrong with mine, the foglight button turns on the parkers (which are in the foglight cluster, which made it even more confusing at the start) no idea how to re wire sh*t so it's no foggies for me

col, that would be ideal i reckon since the parkers are not that bright at all (ive tried 2 diff LED's normal ones and SMD's and both were really avg in terms of brightness) but i rekon headlights+foggies would look better than headlights+parkers... although ive never seen fto fog lights turned on in the flesh im just guessing they would be brighter than the parkers.

see my above posts to your issue ^

another thing to keep in mind is legalalities, here in SA fine for driving with foggies on too

im fair angry cause after removing everything cleaning/polishing lenses nd putting everything back as it was, then the satisfaction i had when it all worked ..............for 2seconds then darkness nd bak to thr frustration. >_<

oh nd what i meant to ask was if its the switch how do i know, what do i do to fix it?????????

Pull the switch out and have a look at the back of it. If it looks burnt then that is the problem, you will need to get a replacement switch, and get an auto electrician to wire in a relay so it won't happen again.

i took out the switch i doesnt look burned to me

heres the photos i took of it

nd i checked all the fuses in the engine bay but they all seem fine what else could be stopping the fog lights from working?

could be resistors or fuses..

Other than that, does anyone know what size of foglights to buy to fit on the 2 outer circles of the facelift bumper? as mine has a grill in there and its piss-ant to look at

its like (oO [abc.123] Oo) <-- on the small o's, i want to fit fog lights in there and on the big O's where my indicators are, i want to replace the housing to a bigger one so its not screwed to the grill thats also in that space, im also aware that the standard placement of the fog lights and indicators are opposite of this but 'foglights outside indi's inside' is the setting i want/like , so does anyone know what sizes i need to fit inthere ? cant find these details anywhere, i would measure it myself but i still feel thats trial and error and i know some of you guys already know these details.

cheers...

hey guys i finnaly bought a new foglight switch from dstocks, but im really hesitant to put it in cause it'll just pop/burn again wont it. Ive heard ppl say to install a relay but ive no idea how. would any one have a clue?

noob time

Q. so the lower you go (eg. 5000k - 4000k) the more yellow the light yes?

lets say i want the brightness of HIDS but i want the colour of the light as close to the stock lights.

can this be done without sacrificing road vision? or are HIDS meant to be white for that reason?

basically higher it is the brighter the light will be
as for being yellow that is only really on standard bulbs.
If your still using factory style bulbs try the 'arctic ice' ones make a big difference
