I tried a few sets of fog light bulbs until I bought the below Xeon depot bulbs in the 5000K color...AMAZING output! A little pricey for fog bulbs but after using them I’d pay double for them again! They are so bright I don’t usually run them when driving in traffic - mainly because I get people flashing their brights at me because they are so bright! So I did the ‘all lights mod’ so when my Hi beams are on it turns on the Lows and Fogs all at the same time and I leave my lights on ‘auto’ dim for approaching traffic (heavy deer populations in my area at night!) and you’d think I have a high power light bar with the amount of light I now have at night (I also upgraded my lows to matching 5000K bulbs)....highly recommend!

That's not the point - But that's ok - I have lEDs in the fog lamps also. The goal here is to be seen and to be able to see better. THanks.
No, the point and title of this thread relates to fog lights. This thread has been only about fog lights, that’s why I alerted you. It’s not about headlights. There’s plenty of threads encompassing headlights. LED, HID, true retrofits, etc. Thanks though.

so i got time to throw in the Morimoto's today.
i can confirm that the stock fogs are indeed adjustable, left-right-up-down, when dealer's service advisor told me they weren't adjustable
Morimoto's require use of stock bracket and the up-down adjustment screw (easy swap)
going to go finish them now and wait for dark and report back on initial impression :cheers:

After I installed my Morimoto’s one of the plastic clips that I swapped over ended up falling out. Those little pieces of plastic are like $18 shipped. Make sure yours are snug.

well... tried to plug in the plug from the fogs to the stock harness - no go, it does not fit. wtf? it seems like the guide pins, or whatever you call them, on the outside of the new plug are different than the stock harness. grrrr

I am thinking of changing mine as well. I think the 880 can be replaced with an 881 even.
