i know i can get green lightbulbs for the headlamps and turnsignals and also get the green angel eyes but, i 'd provably get pulled over more easily for having green lights than blueish/white. so i just want to get some to look like the angel eyes. i'm ok with the nokyas but those turnsignals do look like shit.

i believe it was less than $70. it took longer to decide how i was going to installed them than it actually took to install them. first fog took about 30 mins to do. i had no clue how to take the stock one out and then i had to figure out how to put it then i putted it in. the second one took 10 mins at the most to do. i'm not good at explaining thing but i'll try.
i took of the whole fog base. the hella fogs come with a metal base, it's got two holes. i just drilled two holes on the top part of the stock fog base. i added a thin piece of metal to give it more support since the new fogs are way heavier that the stock ones. i've got the wiring that came with the new fogs for now but i'm going to connect the fogs to the stock cable so i can use the fog switch that's already on the car, and i'll hook up the halo to the turn signals. a picture is worth a thousand words, so i'll just take it off apart and take some pics. you'll get the idea from just looking at the pics.

to tell you the truth i don't know, i know the hellas were the same width and really close to the same depth but a hell of a lot heavier.

Z....your lights look great...don't change a thing.

i've already figured out what i'm going to do. there's this chrome turn signals that light up yellow. i'll get them and then clear my corners. i'll keep the nokias for the headlights and get yellow/gold bulbs for the fogs.
