can you say the projector fog light is better or the same at the oem fog light??? are they brighter or have the cut off??? can you post a pic in day time with out the lights on, just want to see if the projector fog lense is visible.
Hope these pictures will answer your question BET530. I should install the OEM Fog lights so you can tell the difference, maybe i'll do that tommorrow. It looks like the right side is kinda low, Any know how to adjust the Fog's?

There is a cutoff inside the projector lense. If they make it without the cutoff, it will be nice but probably too bright.
Hey john do you know if the Projector Fogs will be able to handle the heat that the HID put out? You think they will melt the housing due to the heat? Plus the cut off is better anyway cause it just wont be too blinding.

Its so simple to adjust it man. I assume you have the umnitza front right? Just pop the grill in and stick your hand in. There is one scre that you can rotate to make it go left and right and another one to make it go up and down. =)

How much did you get it for btw? let me know!
