Upgraded my fog lights

Switched over to Hids a few months ago, of course the heat melted my fog lights. Upgraded to glass. Look good if you ask me.

They are H3 bulbs. The housing is glass which is a huge upgrade to the plastic originals. I got them on Amazon. I made them so they are aimable with the original brackets. I'm not one of these idiots out there that can't aim his lights, not trying to blind anyone. Just trying to see the road to avoid the plethora of pothole in our wealthy county. I have had my friends tell me they are not blinding at all. Nobody flashing me or anything. While I was under the car I upgraded the running lights, the old ones were cracked and faded. The car looks brand new.

I find I need to drive with them on all the time, so much better to see the potholes and craters in the roads. I aimed them and have asked multiple people if the are blinded. Nothing but compliments on the upgrade.

This is a old and new fog light pic. The new one is the passenger fog light, the driverside is the old one.

I thought about LEDs, but I couldn't find anything that seemed as bright as HIDs. And would look like stock. And not be so costly. I converted all my other lights to LEDs, do you have any pics of your conversion?
