Why did you buy them when you could make your own and have them be MUCH brighter... check it out https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...hreadid=280016

because (with all due respect to you):

1. i already made my own, using a much different setup (i used office supply plastic stuff as a light diffuser so the whole thing is lit up, and rectangle foglights behind it), but eventually it just proved to be an annoyance.

2. i considered doing what you did but since the light emanates from one location it looks ugly, and even with a diffuser, it is still obvious it is coming from one point, it's not evenly spread out and looks ugly.

3. there comes a point where i say if you're going to do something, do it right.

4. i got them for cheap!

now, does anyone know where i can buy the sockets for the JDM FTPs?

oh and another reason why i didn't do what you did is because of heat issues, the plastic around where the light is will start to melt.
