Holy Sh*tballs! People weren't kidding when they said the output was amazing. It's like having another set of headlights. I'm definitely impressed.

These pics are just of the LED demon eyes and XB Fogs:







I don't know the best settings for taking light output pics at night, but I reduced the exp comp on my camera so the light wouldn't be exaggerated.

@Rochester, sorry but I couldn't find the stock halogen bulbs so no comparison pics.

Wow. So are they too bright to use now for oncoming traffic?

Nah, the optics on these fogs aim the light low and wide to the ground, exactly how fog lights should be.

Is there a thread on here that shows how to do the independent fog light wiring like you guys have done? I'd like to be able to turn my fog lights on independently from the headlights too.

I'm gonna hold off on the install until the 1st sat until December. Just found out my inner cv boot is ripped and my upper coolant hose has a small leak. Just ordered those parts and will be getting the v3 triton switchbacks for Black Friday. Plan to do all this in one shot. Keep the pictures coming.

No unfortunately there isnt. Only the guy who helped me do it and I both have it. He's the one who figured it out how to get it done.

Thats the way it was on the 5.5 gen Maxima... Tapping into specific wires in the relay box after someone figured it out.

If there were a writeup here, that would be great.

If you don't want to mess with the stock electrical system, the other option is to use a universal wiring kit with a switch. This is what I'm using:





$13 on Amazon. Connects directly to the battery. The only tricky part is getting the wiring for the switch through the firewall. I didn't want to drill a new hole and I couldn't find a suitable existing hole, so I ran the wiring through the cabin filter vent. Ghetto, I know, but it works.

The switch itself is unsightly, so I mounted it in a discreet location: the ash tray

Yeah I remember that I had to tap into the air conditioner relay wire to have the foglights working independently on my old 2000 Maxima. I wonder if it is the same for the Infiniti.

I used this one instead. The one you posted has the foglights on with the parking lights.

Hmm. 5th gen vs. 5.5 gen? Either approach, sure would be awesome if someone here could write up the approach for the G.
