well there are some that say that that spectrum range is better in fog...the yellow that is...btw if you order wedge type 194 fitment LED's for those top markers in cool white it will match your headlights dead on, they are not turn signals and only turn on wiht the head lights... Im on the way to your mods as well just 5000K I think....

What HID kit are you all using? What all mods are you doing to your fog lights besides the yellow tinting? What are you using for the tinting also.

Love it,

-First of all a change it cause i pay less for the sport AT than the old base MT cause I have good credit now.
-my wife don't like MT, so I change for a AT and yesss!!! I miss the MT a little. but don't regret it.
-New look, new motor, new interior.

hehe, I thinik HID(High Intensity Discharge) is the generic term for anything not Halogen, and Xenon gas charged bulbs fall under that realm sorta...did you get the digital ones? the balasts are suppose to stay cooler and are much smaller...how are you controlling the beam cut off? just pointing it down? Techincally we should be running projectors, but thats a pretty complex mod...

Thats cool do u mind me asking how much did u get for the 07 fit and how many miles were on it. I tryed to trade my fit into honda and only would give me $13,000 when my fit had 4,500 miles on it so i kept it.

First off looks good dude, I like the white!

I have 4300k in mine....tried using some 194 leds I had left over from my Trans Am and they just don't want to stay in the socket. I may dab some silicone in there to tighten it up a bit....I'll do that saturday before football starts. You can also buy the xenon bulbs for those too, give off the same color. Just ordered a 4300k kit for the foglights as well, I have an extra set of h11 3000k bulbs laying around if I ever want to throw the yellow in there.

i went to like 6 honda dealers here in Puerto Rico, and the best one gave me $13,500 with 17,500 miles on it, so I trade it. I bought it for $16,000 2-1/2 years ago.
