Custom JDM Fog Light Bulb
 
Hey guys,

I'm thinking of getting a JDM fog light and modifying the bulb. Here is a thread I found on how to make it a dual intensity light with a flashing module:

In case anybody wonders this is the module that I'm planning on going with:


Blinking Smart Stop Delay Version Products


My questions is which kind of bulb would you pick for this? Here are two bulbs that I found and thinking of going with.

https://www.superbrightleds.com/more...ower-led/1648/

I would like the low intensity light to be same/close to when the tail lights are on and when I press the brake if possible to be brighter than the regular brake lights. Do you guys think either of these two bulbs will be good for BOTH matching the running lights and being a little brighter than the brake lights?

If you have any suggestions of bulbs please post a link to it.

Thanks!:tiphat:

The module that I'm getting will make it blink 6 times then go steady, on bumper to bumper traffic as long I keep on pressing the pedal in intervals less than 8 sec the light will be steady ...it is a good way to catch the person behind you attention so they won't drive too close

I agree with you on the annoying of constant blinking lights ...that website sells modules like that too but the one that I want will be like I mentioned on my other post. I just want this for two reasons:
1.compliments the back of the car especially when the light has the same brightness as the stock taillights
2. A little added safety when braking

i was thinking of doing this as well. but if its behind a red reflector, i'd honestly stick with a halogen bulb.

Can you explain a little more? I'm not an expert on lights lol

meaning that you aren't actually going to see the bulb itself. I could be wrong but i doubt those led's going to be any brighter in that housing than a regular bulb.

Damn....I see, but do you think it might be as equally bright as the tail lights? I wouldn't mind an exact 4 light
