Hello Everyone,
Okay so I installed the McCulloch Xenon HIDs and they are wonderful.
But now my fogs look so yellow. Can anyone recommend a great bulb that
will provide me with a more whiter light or something that will look like 5000K?
I've currently have the Silverstars but they look awful?
Thanks

Good to know. So what do you recommend? Catz? And what is the model?
How much modding is involved? And what's the cost?
Thanks

Sweetest fogs ever
As much modding as you want. If you put the fogs in the stock location I think you just have to find a way to mount the bracket to the bumper....and still keep the lense centered.

mr magnum and 01bluemp3 where did you get your fogs and what models are they? ive been looking for yellow fogs that are a direct replacement and require no modification. both of your cars look great with those lights. ill be putting on a 8000k HID conversion with the "euro" style headlights soon prolly.

From what i hear, you gotta lose the front lip, or mod it to fit the lights, then get at mounting parts and slpice in the wires with a switch.

i found the Catz SR online and there are three different choices...driving, fog or spot. would the fog be the closest to factory style? does $168 sound right for price? where did you get yours from 01bluemp3? i know i have lots of questions, thanx for answering them for me. also, did you rewire your fogs to turn on with parking lights or is the mp3 like that?
01bluemp3
01-26-2005, 12:45 AM
I got the fog light mod done, and i got mine used off another forum member for helpin him work on his car when he sold it, he paid 300 new.so 168 is a hella good price. You just have to do a lil wiring when you get em. You cut the factory wire connector off for the factory light and wire in the power and ground from the catz to the wires you just the connector off of. taket about 15min.

how did you get the fogs to turn on with the parking lights? thanx again for all the info. ive been learning as much as i can about my car so i can start doing things i want to it. do you think the McCulloch HID are the best to get? i will lose high beams wont i? you only get those with H4 right?
01bluemp3
01-26-2005, 01:05 AM
Yea you will lose the High beams, get a H4 kit. There are two kinds, BI-xenon, they have the high beams in xenon, or one with a reg hallogen bulb, i got the one with the hallogen, wishing i got the bi xenon, go for that.
Take a look at this for the fog light mod too
