i had the piaa extreme 2 inch driving lights installed in 2001 and they still work great

 

Double check and make sure that you didn't pinch the wire when you put it back together.

I had to replace one (rock magnet) and they looked like the unit below. I bought a TYC brand version of the light that "meets or exceeds OE quality" for $90. Got it out the door from a body shop.

 

Haha man, I feel like an idiot.. I tend to forget things very easily, and it happens quite often.

 

I mounted my Hella DE's tonight with H3 HID bulbs. I still need to wire the ballasts and connect to original wires. I did a quick connect to compare light output and it was amazingly brighter

 

I received my HID's today so I'll be ordering some Hella Micro DE's first thing tomorrow morning! Let me know where you mount your ballast.

 

I finished the install of my Hella Micro DE HID fogs. I went with H3 HID bulbs versus the H3C. The focal point on the H3 HID bulb lined up well with the OEM H3 bulb. I'm very happy with the way they look on the road giving excellent foreground illumination. I could adjust and get a sharper cut-off, but it won't matter with the HID headlights. Should blend in nicely. Can't wait to add my HID projector to the mix...

Price for this mod (upgrade):

Hella Micro DE Fogs w/4Runner specific mounts: $120 shipped (Thanks Mike-Boomin850)

H3 HID PnP kit: $75 shipped

$195 total is not too bad

 

Nice job.

 

Damn that looks good! Too bad Amazon is currently sold out of the Hella Micro DE's... Does anyone know of any other websites where they are less than $100?

 

uh-uh...looks like it's too long for the factory-installed fog lamp assembly...anyone tried those on the factory-installed fogs?

thanks!!

 

Your correct, the H3 HID bulb won't fit into the factory fog. You can use the H3C in the factory fog. The only reason I replaced my fogs with the Hellas was because they weren't in very good shape.

 

nice job i have both too. awsome.

 

Thanks pfdaxe, that´s exactly it what I´ve search the whole evening!

Could you tell what´s the accurate mark/model of the HID kit what you used?

 

for foglights, i wouldn't settle for anything less than a little pair of these:




j/k, can't help myself not posting it.

 

i am going through the same with my wife's 01 sport.
I stripped the bolts on the passenger assembly and thought i had the assmbly tightened well enough and it fell off the damn rig as we were driving.

The drivers side burnt out and i stripped the g-damn screws on that too.

So i think replacing the entire assembly is in order. What will work the best? I am sure teh remaining bolts, just like any other toyota bolt that is rusted, will break.

 

how much didi u paid for th fog lights on amazon cause want to get the same ones u did

 

anyone have a good replacement for cheap?

 

I paid $110 on e-bay for these and they installed quickly and replaced the old ones quickly.

I might just have to get those Micro De's.. Has anyone tried any of the round/oval Optilux series lights by Hella. I want something that I can later add some HIDs, so I dunno if they'll work. They are smaller and seem to be cheaper than those Micro De's.
