even stock fogs make a big difference. mine have been wired to come on with heads for years and ive never changed a bulb in 6 yrs!

 

I use the fogs quite a bit on the back roads and have them come on with the brights. These HID are significantly brighter, a big difference. When using the OEM fogs, I could still see the HID pattern over top, this could be because they were white and the OEM fogs were yellowish. But these fogs overpower the headlights- don't get me wrong, I can still see the clear pattern for the headlights past the fogs (on low beams). For giggles, during installation I put in a replacement stock bulb when I was figuring out the wiring and the HID was much brighter but it did not show up in the pictures.

 

I was pulling out of the garage and thought I would get some pictures.

This is with only the STARR headlights


Here are both sets of lights

 

I am surprised and pleased that the beam pattern of your new fog lights does not seem to go above the cutoff of the Starr (low Beam) headlight pattern.
Can I assume that no on coming traffic has been bothered by the these new bright fog lights ?

 

I have not had anyone flash me. I asked one of my coworkers who was coming into the garage at the same time from the opposite side of traffic and she said they were fine. Since when was in a sedan and I was in the hummer I took that as a positive.

I used the fogs for the last three days of bad rain and maintain my level of happiness, great lights.
