Night Shoot of New Foglights and LED tails

Did a night shoot last night in a pitch black location to see the performance of my new hella micro de projector fogs and led tail lights (same ones as williams). I used 4300k h3c hid bulbs for the fogs to match my s2000 projectors (did a projector retrofit on the cheese graters). Previously, I had crystal clear fogs with 6000k h1 hid bulbs. They were way too glaring and light was not focused where it should be. The new fogs are way better and light is spread evenly with no glare whatsoever. I'm really happy with them. The fogs were surrounded by black mesh. No day shots yet though.

Suffice to say, think I am very happy with my lighting now.

LED tails (also threw in Osram Diadem indicator bulbs)



Check out the intensity of the rear fogs! I wired them so both rear fogs turn on. Tail gaters beware! LOL!





I also got white led license plate bulbs that have resistors so no error messages.





Fogs only

Thanks!

For the rear fogs, I just ran a wire direct from the single existing rear fog wire to the non functioning rear fog.

They are LEDs. I have the same tails as Williams coz he introduced me to his source. Mine are ever so slightly smoked though. Really light tint though.

I've seen your thread about your new LED tails. Actually you did not really get ripped off. There are 2 brands of LED tails. I've seen both in person. Yours is made by depo. The ones with LED rear fogs are made by eagle eyes.

Thanks! I got it from my local workshop. Unfortunately, they cost US$130! I know, I know, I'm an idiot for paying so much. But I couldn't resist since my workshop tempted me when I went to install the LED tails! LOL!
