Some of you may have seen my pictures of my HID retrofit with my 3000K fogs. They look nice but they suck. I want better fogs that fit the car and that has a nice wide beam.

i perfer the Katz lights, they do not fit the corolla lines, but if you set them back about 1.5 inches they look great

saw them on ebay yesterday for $75 with free shipping. not Pilot brand but DNA Motoring brand. prob all made at the same factory.
emailed guy, he only has the blue lens, not the white lens.
he claims if you have the same bumper in the pic on the ad, which is a US bumper, they have perfect fitment.
i have a euro bumper with the smaller grill up above the lower larger one, so i don't think these would fit my bumper opening at the bottom, euro bumpers have a smaller grill opening at the bottom. sigh.

hmm i may have something that would work thats off a ford focus. its not a projector though and takes an 880 or 881 bulb. you can google some photos, they may be the right shape to work down. there with shipping you'll be able to get something local cheaper than i could sell you them.

Yeah someone here posted a pic of it installed and it WAS perfect fitment. I too wanted clear lenses instead of the blue ones that's why I didn't get them. Have you tried looking up cars with similar shaped fog lights to your bumpers? Some people have used Mitsubishi and Nissan fogs on our bumpers before.

havent tried yet looking at mitsubishis or nissans yet. could be a thought for sure.
the pilots seem a perfect fit, theyre claimed to be. but since my opening in the bumper is slimmer than US ones, it may be a prob for me for fitment. trying to find specs on it for measurement.
