Just a quick question.
I've been looking for some driving and fog lights for a while now, but the ones i keep finding are way over budget. I found these, what do you think of them, good/bad? anyone ever use these?

Thanks

Nice.

Good lights are worth the money, I had a good set of PIAA driving lights on my last car and loved it.

Hella and PIAA are the way to go, don't bother with the cheap stuff.

Do you want driving or fog? They are diferent light paterns/ beams. Pearsonaly love Hella lamps, had them in my last car. An good quality light has no price! Cover the lens in an protective film. Ricochet and 3m come to mind. Realy cheap insurance agains rocks and stuff.

Hmm, those look interesting. I was going to look into replacing my dead fogs on my car. I seem to like Hella because they make more humble products compared to PIAA coming off as ricey. I'm not saying this for all, just in general from what I see.

If it helps you make a decision Tlake, I likely plan on opting for Hella myself.

Try window tint places. They had 3M stuff where I went. Pricey.
