EBPlude · 02-04-2002, 08:18 PM

I read that the replacement bulb for the JDM fog lights is the H3C. I just put JDMs on but i dont like how dull the lights are the come with it. I am looking for a bulb that is superwhite or a bright white with a tint of blue. ... what is a good bulb i can get for this?? and where can i get it??

these bulbs are JDM, personally i like my PIAA ION YELLOWs in my FOGS, it gives out more light than white beams

i would like to see wut the galaxy whites look like in the fogs. I have them for my low beams, just wondering if it is a similar beam.

actually dohcpower, i got the idea from the pictures you posted a while back...when you posted pics of your catz galaxy white H1 bulbs in your headlights, they looked so good, i decided to do the H3 conversion and put them in my fogs! the beam color is similar i think to what i remeber your headlights looking like. I will take pictures tonight and hopefully post them some time this evening or tomorow...

The conversion is very very easy

I read the post that Fliptout posted a while ago...Here is his link...just follow what he says in his post and thats it...His pictures dont work though..so u want to right click on the red x that appears for every picture and hit properties and copy and paste the URL for the picture on your web browser...This conversion is so simple...hope it works out for all you guys!! Here is the link...
