Foglamp question

[Clint Beastwood]

So yeah, that's why I went with those iJDMTOY since there were so reasonable at only $73, and now I know I need to swap their orientation to get the clean projector cutoff I want... my experiments with the stock housings using Lamin-X and a few different H11 bulbs was just not good... And as far as headlights, going to carefully selected LED bulb with a proper chip design to mimic the halogen light point length is totally fine without causing excess glare, after a bunch have been tried, the TechMax Mini are inexpensive but perfect for our housing. I rocked that for a bit, and they totally provide better visibility without glare to bring attention from authorities so I recommend them wholeheartedly in your case... but, then I said, "You know what? I have a modern sporty little car, and I just really want projectors and the LED brow DRL..." so I went with those Depo Euro replicas and 9 months later, they have been perfect!

nice - no fogging or moisture buildup?

With the Depo? No, they are replica's of the OEM and OEM is not designed to be air tight to begin with... I even don't even use rear rubber caps on the low beams since I use Katana H7 Bulbs and they have bulky cabling with an external driver. I even live in a rainy area and have no issues.

@danbfree how did you secure the plugs for the fog lamps? Looks like there is a bunch of slack on those ijdmtoys on the wiring?

Nope, not a lot of slack at all, just a few inches more that doesn't droop much at all and doesn't get in the way of anything.

Is there a difference in OEM foglights between years? I have a 2019 and they don't seem that bad...I was thinking maybe earlier years got extra dim/crappy ones, or maybe my standards are low.

They are all the same. When I did mine, I went to a foglight/driving light combo, worked great for me. It was on the pricey side, but you have to pay for quality.

I'm Rebuilding a front collision ST is there any point in buying Factory fog lights? Seems I could just spend a bit more and get High Quality LED's

FWIW, I just upgraded to Diode Dynamics LEDs (sport yellow)... they are phenomenal.
