    Default Check out these after market lights, opinions? they look pretty dam good..

    Holden VX VU VY SS Fog Lights FogLamp FogLight PAIR NEW - eBay Fog Lights, Lights, Indicators, Car Parts, Accessories, Cars, Bikes, Boats. (end time 11-Jul-10 23:55:10 AEST)


    What do you guys think? Direct fit and looks alot like the originals, even has the same mount and the right type of plug for the VY S Series 1 and SS? Anyone ever brought these, looks like the after market products have improved from the other crappy ones..

    (im on a series 2 Vy S pack, so i'll need to do the wiring etc myself)

    They don't have the SS ingraved in the glass like originals do, thats the only thing i noticed other wise look genuine.
    Personally i would go to Holden and get a quote on genuine fog lamps, Genuine parts often aren't that as expensive as you would think.

    holden are on the meaner side of 300. They are the same as holden, but as said no ss. Which is better, IMO, for people who dont have an ss but have the ss kit

    Keep in mind, many people dont seel with the bolts!!

    OKAY, so i got myself a wiring harness from super cheap for 16 bucks, the best buy branded one, i have hooked it all up sweeeeet at this stage i am using the switch provided with the harness, as soon as i get my hands on the proper switch, im going to figure out the connection and write up a nice how to, so people can put their own looms in and use the factory switch
