replicating foglight of scepter 1piece headlight

[ryuji16]

i was just thinking if the foglight feature on the scepter headlight can be done on regular usdm headlights on the gen3. if a dual filament bulb were installed in the high beam socket, then some re-wiring done, would this be at all possible? maybe utilizing a switch if necessary? furthermore, would aiming the bulb also be a potential problem?

I hope it's possible. I have the scepter headlights and am going to have to adapt them to a USDM camry....no clue as to how to do it yet though.

[lepracon9]

Yes the wiring. The scepter headlight has a H3 fog light and H4 hi/low beam.

Do you mean retrofit projectors in? I dont wanna touch the headlight housing itself. Not so easy to replace.

[lepracon9]

True that. Buy me another set and I might try it...

ok ok... my thread is being jacked . aside from going the projector route... is it possible to fabricate a foglight feature in the high beam slot of the usdm headlight?. and if it is possible, what might you have to do to get it done right.

of course if i had the patience and the money i would do projectors.... but right now thats not gonna happen

un hook the red wire w/black stripe and cap it off cause the white wire w/black stripe will be your new ground.

then connect the red wire for the low beam to the end for the low beam on the bulb and the red for the high beam on the high side of the bulb.
and just repaet it to the other side. but the other side uses a red wire with a yellow stripe.

i just answered two questions with one

as for adding the amber fog light get a set of after market fog lights that are small enough to fit. or you can send me the money for new headlights and materials and i can make you a set.

[ryuji16]

so you cant wire the high beam bulb to make that your foglight?

what im looking to do is make the foglight feature with what is already there, without adding any sort of extra foglight or projector. get what i mean? or am i not reading your post right...

When ever I can dig up a set of Gen 3.5 scepter lights and get the cash up....Im gunna do a retro fit. Just retro fit your stock lights first Stock parts - guinea pigs.

ryuji16:no there is no other way except to butcher you'r lights

[ryuji16]

^ damn.

so what would you do if you had the 1 piece headlights? how would you wire those?

[2wickedtoyz]

the same way i just told you

[lepracon9]

If you wire your lights like 2wickedtoyz says, you will really just have one high/low beam and one running light. On the scepter headlight, there is a yellow plastic shroud that the fog bulb slides into, which gives it its yellow color. I guess the lexus headlights w/ yellow fog work the same way.
