I was wondering, has anybody tried or thought about using the projectors from our fogs to do a headlight conversion on our stock lamps? I wan't projectors and the HID package, but I wanna do the projector first. Me and rigo (lookslikeanevo) was talking about it and said projectors w/ out the HIDS on our car would look better than our stock lights, so ive been thinking about this. My friend has a celica GT-s and dam, it looks good with the projectors, I have to double take because I think he had HIDS... but nope, just stock light w/ projectors.

Is it possible? I don't use my fog lights anyways. I think it would be a cool weekend project.

 

Try it out and see what happens. I think rigo told me before we could buy acura tl, or tsx projectors with hids for under $300. I always use my fogs so i would like to keep them.

 

u can use ur fogs as projectors...i don't see why not. i have seen people used minicoooper fogs as projectors. give it a try...u got nothing to lose, right?

 

personally i wouldn't do it with the fog lamp projectors, they are no where near like the one you get on a Bimmer or Acura, they are not made for that type of lighting system, for the fog light it's fine but not for a headlamp

 

if u can get ur hands on a hid kit that is based on h3 bulbs...test it out first...see the out put as well as the cutoff band. if it looks nice..then, go for it. keep us posted...hehehehehe

 

right now, i have a set of audi A6 projectors for sell for $65 shipped. let me know if u are interested in them.

 

^^^ im broke right now...

... can you hold them till the end of the month?

 

i have silverstars in my car, they are a nice compromise if you dont wanna shell out the $ for an hid kit

 

That fog light housing is shaped to spread a wide swath of light, and not very far ahead, as all fog lights are designed to do. Without changing the shape of the internal housing, if you modify them to fit as headlights, you'll get the same result. Lots of light out to the side, but not far foreward. Try finding a projector set that was designed as headlights. Joe.

 

whenever i try to redo my hid retro again into another projector like s2000 or something better..i will give it a shot by using my hid lighting system into our fogs. and, yes..if u really are interested in it, i can hold them for u...just let me know. these projectors are d2s and are the real deal hid projectors. see my other link for pics.
