Those look good. My only question would be how they fit. I would want them to look as OEM as possible when off. And work with my stock switch. Otherwise they look like they would fill my desires perfectly. Please take lots of pics once you have them installed. Day and night!

They are three inches diameter, they will fit in our stock housing. I'm still working on exactly how to mount them but I will for sure let you know when I get it done. I'm going to break some 880 bulbs and solder in the wires so I can connect it to the stock harness and use the stock switch. Can't get these till I get my LED underglow installed.

I would prefer HID cause hids are brighter obviously, but I would want something to work with the stock connections, I really dont want to turn off my daytimes in the day just for hids. And I like the way my 07 looks with the fogs on, so I would love bright bluish/whiteish color. My stock lights are bright as is but, I can always imagine blue/purp head lights at night. I like the color scheme ;]

You sir are one of the lucky with a 7th gen monte. Just buy some projectors you can get projectors for fog lights and lows. I think tadcaster has them on his "little duece coupe" ask him if they work on the stock wiring.

Yeah, you have a diferent housing, they make housings with projectors for your monte, basically its the legal way to do HID's and It looks waaaaayyyy better. Then you just put in an HID kit. Between 6000k-12000k is your best bet for that color. The higher one will be more purple. The lowere one more white. Blue is in between.
