OMG - Replacing your fog light bulbs is a major PITA!!!!

Geeze, took me almost half an hour!!! The area behind the bulbs is so small that even dwarf would have trouble switching the damned things out!!!!

Anyhow, after I got the first one done, the second one was a lot easier. I replaced my headlights, fog lights, and the blinker lights (the orange lights on the side of the headlight) with Sylvania Silverstars, and the difference is HUGE IMHO. I glad I finally picked these babies up - although the price of them was a little steep

All in all, the pain in my ass was worth it

Well, I guess I'll have to remember that next time :P

Anyhow, the fog lights are REALLY bright, they make the Silverstar headlights look less bright due to their extreme brightness.

What type of bulbs are the foglights? I want to replace mine, they seem a bit too dim for my tastes

Heeheehee... yeah, I had to remove my stock fog lights all together (due to my front bumper cover -JT EVO). BUT, I just replaced them with PIAA fog lights... http://www.piaa.com/Lamps/Lamp-pages/80proxt.html talk about bright! the suckers are huge too... I dare somebody to use their "brights" on me... they'll be getting a blinding surprise!

mean, mean, mean...
Heehee, but I was thinking that myselft
unfortunately, the cops around here like keeping there eyes on me (they must like my car...) so with my luck, they'd pull me over for being some sort of distraction... (lights too bright, or something)
I think I have used them once though -one time in the morning when it was raining, and fog was all over the place

No problem http://www.sylvania.com/bin/carApp/c...00SX&x=28&y=15

I bought them at AdvanceAutoParts. PepBoys didn't have them.

Yea, they look blue when off, so they look good on my blue 200SX, but when you turn them on they're orange.
