black clay?

bracket pics are up, and I found an issue with my system. it might be the wrong relay or bad wires, but I'm getting like 178 something when measuring ohms. I'm getting 12v to both sides, but like 130 something left and 170 something right for ohms and like less then 20 ohms for ground. so I'm still kinda up in the air right now about it. also at the relay output, I'm getting 120 ohms. so the 130 isn't bad I don't think, but I don't know ATM.

That seems like a lot of resistance just for wires.

I don't know if it is that way, those were the numbers on my DMM set to 200k I believe. I have a small hunch that it's my relay.

charto911 · 06-21-2009, 01:56 AM

im int. in a set

Ku-sama · 06-21-2009, 03:45 AM

well... $80 and you got a set with everything except the fog light switch. but before I go and make all of these sets, I need to find out what my issue is here.

charto911 · 06-21-2009, 11:33 AM

k, is the set just the lights and the brackets or is there wiring the plastic pieces or what...

p.s. good luck with the issue at hand

w91mr2 · 06-25-2009, 10:27 PM

I have some of the same lights. I never bothered to go and make brackets. How did the brackets go on the fogs themselves?

Ku-sama · 06-25-2009, 11:05 PM

drilled a little hole and screwed it in

w91mr2 · 06-25-2009, 11:09 PM

Cool, thanks. I'll try that with mine, except I think mine are slightly longer. I'll still try. Beats paying $100+ for oem if it looks good. I happen to have JDM too so I am excited.

Ku-sama · 06-25-2009, 11:11 PM

if yours are skinny and longer, you have ST lights, they don't fit right.

Emenence · 07-01-2009, 07:23 PM

Any updates?

Ku-sama · 07-01-2009, 10:26 PM

nope, waiting on the foglight switch from hong kong. been waiting a few weeks.

BUT

I think I'm going to have to run new wires... but we'll see.

Emenence · 07-03-2009, 03:39 AM

I'd like to see the angle of the light output of these fog light on an MR2 before I go out and buy some.

Wickenfen · 07-27-2009, 01:44 PM

Any update on this project?

Ku-sama · 07-27-2009, 03:07 PM

not really. I need to rewire the whole system. mine is shot.

91_mr2_boi · 09-15-2009, 09:26 PM

ku-sama ever finish this up?

MidnyteRunner · 09-15-2009, 09:50 PM

is there any good looking crystal fog lights that look like the OEM fog lights? if so, someone point me out to where i can buy some

I'm out a foglight ATM, I'll be posting back with more info and a wiring write up.

that's a ghetto wire test of one fog, and light output.
