I've had bad luck w/ APC corner lights on a Mustang and have known of other problems with that company so you're right when you said the brand scared a few away. Looks awesome and I imagine you can see better at night, especially rainy nights. Does anyone other than APC make some like those or is that pretty much the better choice?

Saw a thread a week or so ago where someone found another company that makes 4-3/8" fog lights to use. IMO, they look better than the ones I have... Even to the point where I bought some (mine are cracked now anyways ). PM me and I'll give you a link to where I got them from for $25/pair.

Yeah I've had a set of those APC's for a few months now. Don't really use the "color changing" leds, but it's still cute for a photo op. Cost cheaper than the stockers and they have a "clearer" look to them. Along with the H3's I put in em, its a good deal. Pics at a bad angle, but you get the idea.

Before anyone screams rice, let me reiterate I don't drive around town like this.

Mine cracked too, and with the color change, I never did figure out how to get them to stay one color once you started the car, finally just drilled some holes for some white leds and stuck em in, no angel eyes but a nice glowing effect

Any problem with leaks from drilling holes for the LEDs? how many did you use per fog?

I replaced the fog lights on my s10 with APC's and I love them. I haven't gotten to the T/A yet but they will have a set soon too.... Nice bird in the front. I wouldn't do it but it looks cool and unique.

I did upgrade the fog lights on my LT1 Trans am, well, when I had it........ I opted for the ones that have the blue lenses, upgraded the relay and harness to run a pair of 100watt H3 bulbs! It did make a huge difference! I even forgot at times to turn my headlights from the illumination I got out of them! I guess my LS1 needs same treatment!

Navigator NV603's is the best way to go IMO. I've since upgraded my fogs to these. They're same OD, but much more lense.. Looks 10x better IMO... I also ran 70w bulbs in mine but they cracked... I thought due to rocks, but since I put the Pilots in and have 55w bulbs I've no issues with cracking... I think the heat might have caused it?!

Default Cant Change the colors

So I hooked everything up. The lights do turn on but I cannot switch the colors. There is a red and black wire, and a red wire connected to the color switch. Could anyone help? Thanks.
