Default Ebay black VRD's

i was looking into getting a set of black VRD's (not the ones with the LED's inside) and had a couple questions
1. yes i know their knockoff's but what's the quality
2. i want to put a 3000K hid kit in there, will the bulb fit inside the housing fine
3. does anyone have pictures of the BLACK ones installed
4. what does an OEM switch for foglights look like, so i can compare
5. what bulb number fits inside the housing
Thanks for the info guys....

Black VRDs? Just searched, no dice.

Are you talking about these

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/04-07...ayphotohosting

Those aren't VRD's or the "APT" (VRD's with no instructions in the box) they are bigger and take up the whole fake brake duct area rather than just fitting inside where the black plastic pieces go originally.

Not many members have those fogs, but good luck

I had these before. They use h3 bulbs. I'm not sure if hid kits will fit or not. I think they look nice on the car, and the quality is not bad, either (I had them for several months and no problem at all)

By the way, this fog doesn't go along with the RS1 lip. That's why I take them out

I just installed 10 days ago those in a buddies car......they look great,fitment not perfect,and not VRDs or APTs..........he got them with the UV leds in them........they work good and install was easy to do........I still like the VRDs better due to the fitment being spot on.

yeah those aren't apt fogs whover said that. apt's come in a vrd box, its the exact same package vrd sends out, those ugly a$s ones are ebay brand and ugly as hell. just get the apt's off ebay and then tint them with the overlay from bluebatmobile
