How much did you get them for? Looks like they just might squeeze in there.

I'd considered going this route. Find a good camera and take progress pics. Those are some valuable projectors you've got there.

I put those in my 94 Civic. They are bright. All are interested, those are the same as the old ES 300

Ep3racer954 · 11-22-2006, 11:59 AM

Intresting can't wait to see how this turns out would love to do this to my car. How much do those go for .

caveman74 · 11-22-2006, 03:43 PM

Look on ebay for the 92-95 ES300. I have seen them for 50-100 a pair.
I got mine last year for 50.00. You just take them out of the black housing

forty.water · 11-22-2006, 03:48 PM

I used to have an IS300, the one thing I couldnt stand were the yellow fogs lol...

They're different, believe me, i've pulled apart ES300 and IS300 fogs, and owned several pairs of each figuring it all out.

The ES300's had a slightly different bowl design and the mounting points were different.

The IS300's started out with 9006's and switched to H3's after a year or two, so depending on the year, you get one type or the other. The 9006's are about an inch longer which makes mounting a bitch.

I could literally with a little grinding bolt up the ES300's to my civic fog bracket, but the IS300's would not.
