Is there a difference between projectors that are used for fog lamps and projectors used for low beams? Would I be able to retrofit a set of fog lamp projectors as long as a 9006 (or H3) bulb will fit, or is the beam pattern and cutoff completely different because of the projector lens? What about high beam projector lenses, same deal?

fog light as low beam = not good.

I did it on my 5th gen with horrible results, You can't see too far as the beam is too wide.



I would recommend looking into hella's 90mm H7 projectors unit, perfect for custom projects.

Hope this helps.

Damn... 'cause I found these for $60 (haven't bought them though, I wanted to see first). I'll check out the Hellas, I know the brand well and know they're excellent... thanks!
