LED fog options?
Im looking for a full LED foglamp replacement option. LED bulbs will not cut it. Has anyone had success putting a Mitsubishi OE foglamp in there Lancer? Or a quality aftermarket option that works?

There is no bolt on application of you want a true led fog light it will have to be custom. If I ever plan on going that route I will update with results and possibly a diy

My goal is to have a more functional fog lamp that has the same Kelvin as the stock HID’s. I currently have Morimoto 2Stroke bulbs. Nice bulb but not what I expected. Against my better judgment I purchased them with hopes that they would be a controlled light. Instead I got dispersed light that illuminate the tops of 30’ trees. I’m now that guy they everyone hates.

I'm running direct "bolt on" or shall i say plug and play 6000K LED fogs on my MR. i have had zero issues with them and they have been on the car for a year... Here is the link.

https://www.xenonhids.com/fog-lights...t.html?i=vyXeG also, you want the Warning Cancellers / Capacitors on the EVOs...

Check out the link i put above. I run these and have zero hate from anyone and they are as strong or stronger than my stock HIDs. Either way, i run these b/c i have night vision issues from some **** that happened overseas when i was with the Marines and these help so much that i can drive without any issues at all!!

Where did you get the Morimoto 2Stroke bulbs? I want to illuminate the tops of trees (i want to use them at night on tight mountain roads for better visibility as a supplement to the normal brights). I want the brightest possible as well without melting housing or damaging the car, thoughts?
