ZL1 Front Nose Lights

[jimmy5]

Anyone know the part number or where to get some different bulbs to change these to HID's like the headlights? The mismatch looks awful to me when I see it at night.

Anyone?

We got ya covered. PM sent.

HIDs will melt the plastic housing. Just FYI.

there is a 24w HID kit out there that will supposedly not melt the housings but it is $200. I ordered some 5000k LED bulbs to try but they have not came in yet.

I can't see paying $200 for a 24w HID kit in a light that is just a daytime light basically.

I do hate the mismatch though.

the light is actually a psx26w but you are supposed to be able to make a p13w work I guess.

I found some plasma kits, but I'll wait to see what Ivan has in stock.

Oracle makes HOD lights that are a much brighter white than stock. Not sure how hot they burn. What other options are out there that won't melt the housing?

I purchased this set several months ago. The P13s are great for the driving lights but the H11 LEDs have very weak output. I sent the H11s back for a refund. The H11s are good for show but not for use as an actual fog light. I have since installed PIAA Plasma Ion Yellow in the fog light position they are yellow as fog lights should be.

Yep. Thats why I got the Non-RS lamps. Has glass instead of plastic.

Are the daytime lights the same bulb as the fog lights? Want to have all 3 of my lights the same color, bottom two are yellow.

no the fogs are H11's and daytime running light are a new bulb PSX26W which you probably won't find very easy.

The fogs you could just roll a 4300k hid kit in or get some bulbs that match close. I tried hoen 5000k halogen bulbs ($38 as opposed to $60-80 for the hid kit) they are not perfect but way closer

I am trying some V-led 5000k p13w's for the fogs ~$50.

you can modify the p13w really easy to fit in the housing but it fits a tad lose so you have to douple o-ring or zip tie or tape them in place.

I tried to go the cheap route ~$90 but the match is not going to be exact just 90% better than it was.

I am running these plasma p13 bulbs in my SS/RS DRLs. The plastic lenses haven't melted yet.

I am runnin the same bulbs in my fogs and I think they look pretty good. They are way better than the yellow stock bulbs anyhow
