Default Driving/fog lights

I think someone here.. maybe i read it at another MC site ( member here only) posted about putting 893 in place of the 880's.

So far, so good. They are 11 watts brighter and look brighter than that on the road.[8D]

So far, the heat dosn't to seem to be an issue.. only being warm to the touch after being on for abit.

If you have an SS.. go for it!.[8D]

Cool, I am in the market for a new set of fog bulbs, one of my cheap e-bay bulds bit the dust this weekend...

What color did you go with??

I am seriously considering upgrading my fogs to true HID's....

Monte.. i just got plain old sylvainia's. I was in Wally World, saw them at a good price and decided why not.

Jmo.. i dont think i would want ones any brighter.. the difference is enough for me to be happy wit hthese.

So far.. tempeture dosn't seem to be an issue and raised the watt intake 10 and thats less than a 1 amp increase on the system.

Goes back to something that i learned long ago.. KISS.

Keep it simple stupid.

Thanks for the info..........

I think I'll try out Luminics Pure Blue bulbs this time. BTW: Euro Designs bulbs off ebay are worthless. I highly suggest staying away from them.
