    Default Would like to trade fog lights

    I have a brand new set of ellipsoid fogs that i'd like to trade for a set of good condition US non-ellipsoid fog lights. I have a set of 9006 based HID bulbs and ballasts that i'd like to use in my fogs, and i can't with the H1 ellipsoid fogs. They will be sent with H1 Silverstars still in their packaging. They are being shipped to me right now and I realized i got ellipsoids about 30 minutes ago lol.

    ...........depo. Didn't see the point in getting Hellas since the depos have replaceable lenses.

    well let me know if you need to sell them - My Depos just went south - I have no trades - so I am a back pocket deal for you. But if no one else comes forward let me know - JT

    The original fogs on my car are kinda beat up, and the right side lens is cracked/shattered... But,If you could use them for parts, I'd trade them and give you some coin for your aftermarket fogs.

    you can't trade the 9006's for h1's with whoever you got em from? the elipsoids would throw a much better pattern and would be less likely to be bitched at for running them, i don't see more then the plug being different on the ballest

    here's the situation. I bought euro ellipsoid headlights, and an H1 HID kit to go with them. My current HID setup has bulbs with 9006 bases, and i want to use them in the fog lights. The fog lights i ordered require H1 bulbs, which are useless. My cracked to all hell US non ellipsoid fog lights are shot, and i wont risk putting an expensive xenon bulb in them. I'd like to find some good condition US non ellipsoid 9006 bulb fog lights to trade. And winfred, the place i ordered them from only carries the projector H1 bulb fog assembly.
