Yellow Condoms for 1st Gen Fogs

Who took out their yellow condoms?

I have a set that I want to sell, anybody need them?

I still like the clear look....although I get a lot of flashing when I have my fogs on...they think I ma running the high beam....then I flash them.......they quit.

Nope, I love the distinct round, yellow, in the headlight fogs. Have them wired so I can drive with them on without the headlights too

I need to do that so I can drive with the parking and the fogs. Anyone wanna tell me how?

I used to like the yellow because it demanded attention but after getting my blue blubs, the yellow was just out of place.

i still have mine on and will never take them out. i just love the distinct contrast it gives with the HIDs... like how the lexes IS and GS are. its a tough look on a car.

Me too i took them out for a while but ended up putting them back in because they look really sweet and give the car that JDM interga and altezza yellow fog look.

Hearing you guys.....there was a reason why I did not dump them....the option to put them back on.......yeah! They would look unique nowadays........

Maybe I should put it back on......it is not easy to install, uninstall......but I guess you get used to it...using the tiny screw drivers....

You arent the only one. I love driving with the fogs on. I did the fog light mod, so I always drive with my Fogs on and while the parking/driving whatever they are called lights are on.

Do a search cause I posted instructions and pictures to show you how to do it. Itll take like 10 mins max to do it. All you have to do is quick splice 2 wires and you're done!

Well acutally here it is, the pics are still up too. https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...ghlight=lights

Ok, this sounds great, wanted to this like forever, but I guess I can do it now.

How did we settle the 3.2 vs. 2.5 difference?

Has anybody done it successfully on the 3.2, and please share the details. I am printing the previous post so I can study it, but it seems that I have not read any 3.2's clearly executing it.

Thanks.

There WAS a post for the 3.2 doing it. This is one of about a hundred small mods that I will be completing once (and IF) I ever get my car back on the road. I personally love the fogs, when my dad first bought the car, that was always one of my FAVOURITE things about it, still is to this day!, even with my HID's I still think it looks SWEET.

Cornflake, did you ever get to do it? Guess not. As I read the post, it was for a 2.5 and there was somebody who owned a 3.2 who could not get the wiring right.

Anybody who owns a 3.2 who did this?
Thanks.

mine are off... and about getting flashes from other drivers... i like flashing them right back then if you click the accesory lever again and hold it... you can drive with your fogs and Highbeams on at the same time... that alwasy gets them... but wouldn't recommend holding it because might damage your selector lever...

Sooo... in conclusion...
The TL has:
Regular w/o fogs...
Regular w/ fogs...
Highbeams w/o fogs...
Highbeams w/ fogs...
or if wired correctly... just fogs

About takeing them out... I think someone wrote something on it already... no pics... I could do it... but by the time i get my car back... someone else already could have done it...

Have fun taking them out... I personally like the clean clear look in the front since my car is white... but on other colors... I'd like them on... just my opinion...

I couldn't find the info here, but there's a thread on it over at a-world. Search for a post started by ntrlmystic called yellow fog lights. Here's the link, but I doubt it will work because of the forum nazis

So did anyone want to get rid of their yellow fog light condoms? does anyone know if you can find just yellow colored h3 bulbs for the fogs?

those directions for the fog/ parking lights including the quick splicer is a little confusing, do you leave that splicer thing on? or do you like take out the wires and connect them? this is the confusing part.

I thought you might have...I've been away from the site for a long time but still thought I'd check.

Can I ask how much you sold them for? I'm trying to see how much I should pay. Thanks!

Hey THANKS a ton! I have to pull my housing apart to see if I still have the assembly that the condoms fit into...I think I threw it away when I took the condoms out...can't remember how it all goes together. I know I threw out the little metal arm that fits right in front of the bulb to block direct output...the part that reflects the light. Is that what I need to hold the condom in there???

you dont need that arm that blocks the output, i'm running mine without them right now, i like the way they look better w/o them...the only thing you need to use the condoms is the metal ring that goes around the base of the condom that twists onto the h3c housing that you have to remove from the headlight (with those two screws)...good luck

Sweet, I think I've got all the hardware I need. Thanks for the tip! I'd hate to tear it all apart to find out I'm missing something. Thanks Undies!
