HID HELP!!!

Recommended Posts

I just installed my 8k HID headlights and they look great and now im trying to match the fog lights but i can't seem to find a company that does them. I was close on ebay but the one's they sent didn't have stock connectors which connects to the truck. I know the 2010 DJ's take H16's (5202) but i need to have them have the stock connectors on them. Any help, please let me know

I put H16 in mine. fits perfect.

Just one problem- they get hotter than the light housing is designed to get. My housing is turning black and a little bit melted at the top.

You will need to either use the leb bulb option or purchase new complete fog light kits, as both high wattage bulbs will get hot and melt housing at some point, even my new white 35w bulbs ruined two housing because it is difficult to get that brands bulb to fit perfectly. I am using the led bulbs now and they work nicely.

Link1 Link 2 or use what i just got, google search for h16 led fog lights.

I am looking to get better lighting for my fogs and I am curious do these H16 led fog bulb replacement do they provide additional brightness when compared to the stock philips bulb?

I noticed your link 1 had a nice led kit and wanted to confirm would this also melt the housing.

I apologize for the late response. I must admit that those two links above I have not tried. They were a little out of my price range at the time, if I had a choice I would have chosen link 1 though most likely. Currently I am using this http://www.amazon.com/White-Bulbs-68-SMD-Bright-Lights/dp/B0061S9YJI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1333157162&sr=8-1 and I would recommend you to read the reviews as my user name is Network Admin and there is one other on amazon. These bulbs are looking perfect still after 4 months use and no problem with heat. They match my HID lights perfectly :).
