That's because I believe, I might be wrong here, I believe aipex8 removed his reflector in his corners. I was going to do the same when changing my lights but I didn't know how and didn't want to break anything so I left it in. No big deal

Aipex:
I changed my parking (geez, the passenger side, what a bioth!!) and corner lights last night. One thing I noticed is that the lights of my corners don't "fill up" the whole corner area like in your pics. Which LEDs did you use? the ones with 2 leds or the ones with 4 leds?
Edit: And to clarify, I did remove the reflectors, also, what a pain...

4 LEDS: http://www.v-leds.com/Interior-LED/D...-p5768086.html
And, just curious, in some of your pics, your corners are turned off even when all of your other lights are on, did you rewire them to perform differently?
Thanks for all your info, my next change will be the fogs using the hids.

My side markers are off in some of the pics because I rewired them to work as turn signals for a while, then I changed them back.

V-leds hid problem
So, I got the kit 2 weeks ago and I installed the hids for my foglight. They were working fine and 5 mins later they were not working............ Any ideas? I think the ballasts somehow restrict the igniters. From one of the threads here, I think I saw someone complaining about the same problem. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I put in amber vleds in my fogs and everyone told me I should have put PIAA's. I thought "now is my chance" to also blindly direct someone towards that product.
Plus HID's in fog lights are pretty ghey
+ I bought some ION Yellow PIAA'S for the wintertime (because led's aren't bright) and I like them, although my fogs have the metal part taken out of the housings(Makes the center of light brighter, not a good thing) so I only really use the fog lights on the highway in crappy weather.

Couple of pics of the new 7443 (bigger) compared to the previous version. Follow the link below for details. Hard to get a decent comparison pic when they are on but I will try again later.

HID's shouldn't need a fuse upgrade. My 3000k HID fogs are almost usable as solo fog lights without modifications... Almost. My ebay Hid's lasted weeks (both died). There's a lot that can go wrong with them.

pdx, you like?
aipex, can you point me in the right direction on the third brake light? i installed an aftermarket one and when i turn the lights on (not step on the brake) i get the abs and dsc lights. when i go back to stock no issues. how did you get yours to work without killing abs/dsc?
