i like the stock headlight setup, if i were going to get a new set i would get the crystal lens which is more see through i think i looks better, i would leave the amber lights because your car is red i think i flows but i do not like the 1 piece headlights i think they look horrible

i've got the three-piece headlights, the inside corners are clear to slight blue and the outsides still amber, they're sweet

Follow these directions, it wasn't hard to do, just follow the steps, and not very expensive, you can then turn the foglight on and off when you have the parking lights on

Those lights are the same I have, it must be the black that makes them pop on his.
I've always liked the foglight/parking light combo, I had that before but the circuit developed a problem so I put it back to stock. I'll have to do that mod again myself.

i like BRAND NEW stock lights with hid bulbs.

however, these are my favorite aftermarket headlights. with all the diamond cut/LED/HID/projector setups for the fox, im suprised nobody has come out with replacement taillights with diamond cut lens(i wish they would at least make an LX set).
