Anyone know any halogens, maybe from philips or sylvania that are a close match? Not sure if I want to go HID on the fogs or not although i might.
how about PIAA bulb?

Those PIAAs are good, little bit pricey though. I was just looking at the Nokya 5000k 80 watts... can these harnesses handle that high of a power rating or should i be looking for 35 or 55 watt?

hmm might just get a set of 35 watt 6000k HIDs to put down there. I was thinking yellow but then i'd have yellow fogs, amber signals, white/blueish lows and that's just a big mess of color lol

I should be able to aim the lamps down a bit. I had HID fogs in my tc and it didn't cut off any higher than the low beams... just spread the light wider on the ground. And not that i'm saying it's right or anything but most people on long island/nyc area don't particularly care about anyone else and put HIDs in their 1990 Wrangler so even if it did become blinding, it's kinda the norm lol. Auto dimming mirrors and windshield tint is almost a necessity around here

Im using the power off of the tail light fuse so when you turn the light on or off they come on and off with them. I tucked the switch under the steering column out of site untill permanent placement. No splicing into the harness or tapping into the side markers is needed.
