Had considered new ones, but $450 each was a bit too pricey in my book.

Thanks and I have that same foggy/dusty look in the top of mine also. There is a member here that you can ship to and have them done inside and outside but my memory fails me as to whom that is.

Do you think these would work in the projectors i have on my VX?

Honestly, now that I've done it a few times, it takes like 5 mins, tops. Grille comes out (2 10mm bolts on top and 2/3 screws in the grille face, can't remember exactly), then you take off the cladding screws, and including the screws in the wheel wells and the 3 underneath. Slides right off after that.

Well, I know I'm not alone when it comes to tinkering and things not going as intended. The Alltech pros cracked the interior covering left of the brake pedal when replacing the flasher. They pointed out the damage and advised they would replace it at no charge. Don't know specifically how it got cracked. Seems out of the way from what they were working on.:confused:

Probably from cramming a 230 pound grease monkey in a 150 pound space. :)

Ordered 4 of these

Already have HD PIAA fogs in the grill, will see how these add to the equation ^__^

those are mostly like 194 bulbs, which will fit in your
upper Horn parts of the headlight and or front corner
fender light too, or your license plate bulbs.

I actually sell those for like $7 each just fyi..
but their price isnt too bad.

I'm happy with these. I like that the LEDs are sealed in bulbs. I installed them in the side markers, fender "horns" and front parking lights. They are intensely bright and clearly visible in daylight. Had the fender horn lights and front parking lights wired to an independent fog light switch, which I use as DRLs.
