LED Rear Foglights

I've been patiently waiting for these for some time. They finally came in last week, since the color I ordered was on backorder. They come in chrome or black housing. Quality is great, and they have the blackjack flag that matches the theme on the rest of my car. The company is located in Taiwan and they were extremely easy to work with via email. Install pics coming soon...

What other products do they sell? Website link?

They look great! Once you get them installed, let us know or show us pictures of how bright they really are. I hope they used good LEDs. I doubt Superflux, though, but they do look like a Superflux. Probably an asian imitation?

Those are badass! Lets see them lit up!

Also if you are doing a retro fit, if you don't mind, how did the switch install go and how much did the stealer charge for re-programming?

sorry, the car was dirty and it just snowed here. Give me a couple days.

Honestly, I don't know what I paid because I bought a few items. I think the fogs were under $60 with shipping. I really didn't care what the cost was. I just wanted them because they are pretty non-existent in the US. It took about 4 days.

Someone posted the link above to their website.

How do you order them? There is no shopping cart on their site.

Very Nice! Is the beam narrowly focused? Intensity? It would be cool to see the light pattern it throws on a wall at, say, 100 feet....

Don't forget to let us know how much the stealer charges for programming. I can't seem to find a price for this anywhere on this site.
