So, after reading a thread about these replacement light bulbs, I decided to order a set. This is more for my own amusement, rather than actual necessity. However, these are some expensive bulbs! I decided to replace both my headlights and fog lights, and it cost me over $100 for everything.

Watch them burn out in 6 months.

 

Good story

 

+1 couldnt have said it better lol. OP u have any pictures or anything lol

 

Not until Wednesday. I will do a comparison. It has already been done, but that thread appears to have gone the way of the dinosaur.

 

 

I was considering getting these bulbs for my fogs to color match my HID lowbeams, since I just want the color to match, I could care less whether my fogs are actually HIDs

then I realized that just getting a whole HID set would be cheaper

don't really see a point in these bulbs honestly

 

I am actually pretty happy with these lights, so far.

Side note: Replacing the lights in this car is much more difficult than most. It is by no means "hard", but it isn't as simple as two bolts and pop right off. There is a bolt right in front of the wheel well that sucks big hairy *****.

 

PIAA lights are pretty good, IMO; I used to run them on all our cars before HIDs got so cheap. The big downsides are price and they only ever lasted me about 1 year, less time than even the crappiest ebay HID kit I've purchased.

 

I have the yellow fogs waiting to be installed but my lens is broken and the dealership said its $270
+ to get a new fog light set up!
