replaced the bulbs on my fogs today. replaced them with 100W h3 replacement bulbs. and also replaced that shitty cardboard stuff in the trunk with some 1/4" plywood. i didnt do the left side because i have a fiberglass speaker box to go there when i get it done.
here you can tell the difference between the 2 bulbs. the one on the left is the new 100W, and the on on the right is the crappy ones that came with it.

and heres the all new.

and heres the trunk floor, will hopefully get my roll of carpet back tomorrow so i can get this done.

and ive been looking around and due to the fact that i am cheap... and broke, i might be making some fender washers for my car next week. i dont feel like spending $16 for a 5 pack from pwjdm. i can get a bag of about 25-50 ss countersink screws from the local hardware store fairly cheap. and i have the roundstock alum. and can just leave them as raw alum for now and maybe anodize them later. any input on this would be welcome. i have the lathe to make them on. and all of the tooling. and nothing but time.

took my blanks back in to napa and replaced them with the proper sized napa premium rotors, and a case of 5w30 and $20 for me. will hopefully get them on tonight and it will stop pulsing and getting hot.
