View Full Version : HID foglights
IllNastyImpreza 03-09-2007, 10:29 PM Anyone running HIDs in their foglights?
I like the idea of hids, but I would like to keep my car as "DL" as possible(at least at night :p )
having them in the fogs lets me simply turn them off.
pics would be awesome !
si12j12 03-09-2007, 10:33 PM ^ i too would like to see pics of this
pinkrobe 03-10-2007, 02:58 AM The trouble with HIDs in the fogs is that having that much light for a fog pattern would likely cause even more glare instead of increasing visibility. Also, the stock fogs are H3, and it might be tough to put in a HID capsule since they tend to be pretty long. If you go with projector fogs, you might not have a problem with fitment. YMMV...
i have set of hid for the stock fogs. they are the special ones that will fit in the smaller fog housing. so no issue there. pm me if you want it. its brand new.
IllNastyImpreza 03-10-2007, 09:27 PM ^ yea I'm running the smaller housing in my 98 RS ..... got any pics ?

Handsdown 03-12-2007, 01:15 AM brighter isn't better in the fog.
and turning hids off and and on will kill them prematurely

HID kit in halogen reflector assy = bad idea.
There's lots of glare in this pic. I feel bad for everyone else on the road with you.

:( Ouch... :(
ryanschram 03-12-2007, 05:38 PM not meaning to thread jack, just proving a point. and it afforded me a chance to get those EDM STi projector headlights too
IllNastyImpreza 03-12-2007, 06:12 PM ^ WOW that sucks... is it totaled??
mike_b49431 03-12-2007, 08:03 PM ^ WOW that sucks... is it totaled??
I'm pretty sure it is just by looking at it. Looks like pretty extensive damage and one lucky driver considering how big and heavy moose can be.
ryanschram 03-12-2007, 10:03 PM nope, not totalled, just over a month to repair
