IT IS VERY HARD TO FIND A COLORED BULB FOR THE FOGLIGHTS, I LOOKED FOR ABOUT 3 MONTHS BEFORE I FOUND SOME. I ENDED UP BUYING REAL HID LIGHTS NOT THE FAKE ONES FROM AUTOZONE

Please note, the rules state no CAP-LOCKS!  But what the hey! it's the holidaze.   lakota

Someone can maybe educate me on bulbs... I just bought a set of fog lights for my 04 off of ebay, from a no-name company called K2motors.  The package includes the plug and play wiring, switch and relay... for $45 you get what you pay for but I don't have any lights now so thought it would dress it up.  The package says I will have H3 bulbs... Like I said before, I was going for the dressed up look...

Is there a brighter bulb I could be using for lots more light?  If I can make them useful, then all the better.  I had some really ugly driving lights years ago on my old Dodge truck that you could sunbath in front of, and were just fantastic on the highway at night.  In modern days, the factory driving lights don't seem to do much other than dress it up.... any recommendations and caveats would be appreciated....

I'm not quite following what you are saying, other than yes the fog lamp harness would have to be wired in some way to the switching of the high beams... The question is how exactly to do it...

... would you believe that since I last posted, I was able to determine that this wonderful kit from K2Motors does not include instructions on purpose?  They do not supply instructions.  Why?  So that you don't try to do it yourself.  Which if you follow my thinking seems pretty silly for people buying from an online or ebay store... cuz that's exactly why we'd buy it instead of going to a local store or dealership to purchase such an item.  ??? I guess it's just me???

Anyway, I have a black wire and a red wire, and the red wire has an inline fuse, and there is a relay connected into the supplied wiring harness.  I know that if I were to just run power to the red wire and ground the black wire that the whole system should work (someone correct me if I'm wrong please).  I just thought maybe someone would have encountered this problem on a similar install and knew how exactly to do an install so it is connected properly with the high beam switch. 

If nothing else, for future foglight installations beware of K2Motors and their kits.  They sell on ebay as well as at www.k2motor.com .  I sent a total of 8 messages in the last week.  Absolutely not one single response from them.  I did a google of them and "complaints" and found a number of forums talking about poor customer service.  I'll have to post in the future as to how well the lights themselves fit... I'm waiting for slightly warmer/drier weather.
