fun with fog lights, part II

im not sure who remembers part 1, basically it was retrofitting some bwm style projector fogs into oem housing. it worked great, except they would not adjust as high as i wanted and therefore could not see them. i also adjusted the shield to make a little blue cutoff instead of brownish. Well now ive decided to keep them yellow instead, using luminics H3 bulbs and also painting the reflector bowl with krylon stained glass paint. So far this is holding up well. Now I finally had some time to take them off and readjust the mounting points. I used wires to tie the assembly in place, the only problem was they barely stuffed back in due to the housing sticking up a bit. But I got em in and aimed higher finally! I actually can see them from the driver seat, so this project officially ends now. Look at the pretty pics!
