I couldn't find any pictures on what to do... but I put a couple LEDs in my fog lights, and I took some pictures of what I did in case anyone was wanting to do that... I basically just winged it so it isn't perfect but hopefully it will work out great!

Not perfect, but it looks alright I think... I also sanded down the ends of the LEDs so the light is more spread out rather than focussed on one spot...
Show me picture of it on.....Show me sand da floor haha

that would be interesting
Splice them into the markers then. I had the same for my side mirrors.

wow can those fogs actually give off light? Mine weren't that chipped and I still threw them in the garbage.

yeah I just drilled two holes in the back (one on each side) and slid the LED in .. Then used this adheasive stuff I had left over from clearing my headlights to seal it... It looks awesome.. I took some pics.. Give me a few minutes to get them up. :)

heh.. I have no idea how they got like that... I think they were like that when I bought the car... I tried to take them apart so I could at least clean it out... I think sometime, I'll have to throw them out and get new ones from a junk yard or something...
I wired them to the side marker lights... but unfortunately, they blink when the turn signal blinks, cause the markers blink too... but it's not too noticeable when the fog lights are on...

came out pretty good! I like it, maybe you could replace the foglight bulb w/an all blue bulb so it's more noticable!

Wow actually looks ok. It would be cool if your marker lights were blue too

I bought some blue marker lights, but I'm not sure about driving with them on... but for like car shows and stuff, they will be in.

yeah blue lights are pretty illegal. When I was looking at getting underbody neons, I was checking out the legality of them in Canada. In the legal document that lists all the lighting and mechanical requirments for Canadian vehicles, rule one was no blue lights on the vehicle.

well it's nice having them in the fog lights, cause when they are on, the fog light pretty much cancles the blue light out for the most part, but if you turn them off, they glow pretty darn good... :) So I don't think I'll be getting in trouble..

turned out awesome, I think they look very sweet with the foglights on but not as good with them off.. maybe its the cause the center doesnt light up that throws it off for me.
Either way looks sweet while your driving wit the fogs on good job

actualy, both blue AND red and very illegal. the reason i was given when i was pulled over was b/c ppl may mistake you for an emergencey car/truck and would be classified as immitating them, i know, sounds dumb but true and makes perfect sence

^ from what I understand, green is illegal in Canada too. so I hope you guys have that stuff on switches.
yeah, it looks good, but it's illegal. be careful out there. :thumb:

It looks nice without the fogs on but when you turn them on it doesn't look that great...maybe some different fogs would fix that

Funny thing is, I've passed several cops now and none of them did anything... I think it's because the fog light drains it out enough to where they don't care, and it's rather low anyways.... I can understand if it was in the headlight or on the hood....

They look nice! When I learn how to the led wiring stuff I'll have to cut into my fogs and make some pink ones!

I think pink would look good! :jk: Isn't the saying "real men can wear pink!" So what about their cars?! Red would look good on ur car! I guess this will be a nice winter project to just take them off to do. :rolleyes2:

I wonder if blue and pink would look good together??? :rolleyes2:
