LED fog lamps

[lucas_1691]

Do i need canbus leds for my front fogs. Or can i just use non canbus. Ive read about switching the neg and pos wires to power them up. H3 bulb btw

[lucas_1691]

Possibly gping to fit the hids insted

you'd be better off fitting HID's - I have LED fog lights, they are purely for the 'look' as they don't light actually emit much light, you can't even tell they're on unless you look at the front of the car (hope that makes sense! )

I agree with ash, the canbus system on the vectra is gash, both myself and [MENTION=20]nick6425[/MENTION] will agree that no canbus bulbs on the market work properly without flashing :/ id fit a HID kit, which I'm planning in the future too

Fogs aren't canbus fed on the Astra if I recall correctly

[lucas_1691]

See i thought that gairo but i asked a lad here and he said they are but im unsure. Basically canbus h3 leds are around 30 pound but hids are only 32 so what do i choose

It's up to you, LEDs give white light but that's it, and the hids will make your fogs useable but will need more work to fit. I have hid fogs on the bus and had to change the plugs

[lucas_1691]

I like the thought of hids ill probably go for them

I had LED fogs before and had to swap the pins round to get to work, and tbf were useless, looked ok but no light at all, changed to HID's and much better, got them on the VXR aswell now, look much better and come in use on dark country roads and especially when foggy or raining as light up that part right in front of the car the Bi-Xenons miss and just as bright, well worth it

Mine are ridiculously bright, was well worth the extra work
