i bought the PIAA 1400 fog in ion crystal. i plan to make surrounds for them out of the figure llc side vent covers. i'll let you know how it turns out when i get them installed (who knows when that'll be). oh, and if you buy PIAA fogs, make sure to buy a good switch from someone else. the included one is stuck on with double-sided tape, sticks out a half an inch and is butt ugly.

dude, just cut the wire going in and out of the switch.

I have piaa driving lamps right now, and i too thought that the included switch was ugly. I went to autozne and got a black rocker switch w/ a blue led in it and spliced that into the PIAA wiring.

sure they do..

all you have to do is trim the lip a little from the rear, becuase it extends farther back and it basically blocks the clips on the bottom of the grille, if you trim it all you have to do is cut it so that it does not extend further than the bumper

It would be alot of work, I think i'll just sell them and do the side vent ones. I wonder how they would hold up with yellow hids ?
