HID Fog adapter

For those that are wondering, or searching. I was hoping to be able to provide clear pictures of the adapter required for fitting HID fogs. I grabbed the adapters from ijdmtoy.com. All that has to be removed is the one tab that I have the needle nose pliers on.




Adapter installed

so what happens when you have your headlights on then turned in a corner. I know the pre-facelift models have the fogs as a cornering light. How does the HID behave when this happen?

I personally do not have that feature but for those who do, I know it can be disabled through coding.

Do you have the link for the adapter? This would probably be a better idea than my "tape it around the edges and hope it holds" idea.

There are a lot of these adapters that can be found on ebay. I believe the metal ones don't need to be modified at all. Just search for H7 HID adapter.
