Sort of. I had to swap the positive and negative wires in the connector itself so the connector would plug in, lock, and power the light. Other than that yes.

Maybe I missed it but I see there are 30W and 60W options for these. What is everyone buying?

I went the same route as carlos64030.
Ordered me a set of original fog lights from junk yard. ( don´t want to destroy my OEM )

Anyone that ordered the black fogs, can you post some pics with them on the car in the daytime?

Want to see what they look like on a non-black car

Might be able to grab some pictures for you tomorrow when the suns out if it's not pouring rain again.

Originally I did black because they were cheaper and didn't know if my idea would work out. Few months later I swapped them out for the chrome and orange LEDs. I personally think they looked better on a white WS6

Went with the Sunpie black ones. Looks like the through bolt method not ideal for this set.

Ah now you want photos of how I did it instead of just the color options. So needy haha. I'll see about pulling one of them off tomorrow to snap some pictures for you. Been raining like a mother ****** here.

Lol no I never took any pictures of the process because it just seemed fairly simple. Drill some holes, tap the holes to the correct thread, and run a bolt in.

Here is what I did - used a dremel to cut off the plastic lens and then cut up the plastic housing. This keeps the adjustability.

The new light fixture fits snugly in the old housing, then I will use some general automotive adhesive to keep it in there.

It's like the OEM fog housings were made for this! I'm glad other people are upgrading and even finding better ways to install these fogs.
