papi, the headlights were actually off in those pictures. My umnitza halo's were on, and due to the extended exposure, it looked like headlights

Pardon me for bring this thread back to life. But just need to know how to install those Hella Micro de's into the side vents? Any DIY out there?

Tried searching but nothing came up....

i didnt use the provided bracket. Wouldnt fit.

i ended up taking out the fake sidevent piece, sticking the fog in there, drilling a small hole into the side of hte bumper, and running the bolt through the hole and into the fog. doing this securely mounted the fog to the car, and it still allowed me vertical movement to aim the fogs properly

Which side of the vent did you mount the bolt? 12:00 , 3:00 , 6:00 , or 9:00?

So the fogs are attached to the bumper itself? No metal frames?

the fogs are attached on the inside of hte vent.... the side towards the middle of the car.

no metal frames, just a bolt going through the plastic bumper.

Did you take your bumper out just to put these fogs in? I don't think my hands and arms are gonna be useful installing those with that tight space.

Haha! I am scared taking the bumper out because I've never done it before!

Maybe I'll try installing it without taking the bumper out. But if it won't work, I'll do it your way. :D

I'll let you know after I get the Hella Micro de's and an HID kit. Still can't decide what color temp, 3000K or 6000K.

Thanks again Neothin.

3000k. 6000k is just eh.


btw, when you need to take the bumper off (because your not going to be able to do this w/o taking it off), the diy is in the tech section ;)

Yeah, made a poll about HID color temp for fogs, and most of them recommend 3000K. I think i'll be going for yellows now. :D

Thanks for all the tips. I really appreciate it.
