Do you want to re-wire your fog lights to another set of do you want to switch the H3 inside?

Make sure that the car is cold. Your hands might get burnt otherwise.

Then twist open the cover for H3 and there is a clip that holds it in.

Normally, I take out the whole light assembly(sp??) out to do it. Easier and no more crap/cuts on my hands.

I got 65w Hella Yellowstars for my car for $4/ea. They give off a yellow light instead of the normal white light. Had Car-Parts special order them. How-to is as Lwin said.

I just got 100w xenon white ones for like 20 bucks of ebay.
They are very weak still.
Maybe if i get clear lights they will work better.
I cant even tell if they are on or off lol.

If i get fog lights external, i will need to buy front body kit with holes because if put this fog lights on my stock body kit its going to look getto. Like this rice`ers

We have discussed this 100W Xenons before and why they are not as bright as they should be.

Do a quick search. Pretty much which colours your eyes can see better at nights and dim situations.
