Well the battery was shot. 120 bucks and tax later....could be worse.

Got the new 9005 fogs in, re-aimed the fogs to be much lower. Cutoff is at my knees when I'm in front of them, very pronounced, with plenty of flood. The "head on" shots are meant to be dazzling, they're from lower than a car would sit. I made sure that my cutoff for my headlights were at car trunk/car door level, the floods are low and spread.



Fogs only from cab




Fogs only from outside on roadway




Fogs and switchbacks head on




Lows with no fogs from the cab




Lows and fogs from the cab




Lows and fogs head on




Lows and fogs from outside on roadway

Mine will be here tomorrow! How well does the 9005 match the H13?

Look at the last picture showing the head on shot. In pictures there's noticeably more blue, not in person though.

They looked more blue, thats why I asked. So I take it you used none of the supplied filters. In person, they match perfect with no filter?

I'm a no filter kind of guy, lol. Unless you're really discerning or looking hard directly at them, they are close enough for govt work.

Installed my 9005 LED bulbs into the fogs (same ones elricfate used). Will report back after some road time. For the price ($20.99) they seem worth it. High/low function still work as before. I do have the bambi mod though.
