That is the only possible explanation. 
Me = stupid driver
Didnt you see me at SZ06 making like 10 passes at the strip?
Or dont you remember me getting a 23 over ticket on the way back from the strip.

I'd like HID's but no money equals no HID's....at least for awhile.
Tom I have no use for fogs which is why im going back to stockers. I wanna be able to use fogs say like during the day so that I can drive around with my fogs/DRLs..and at night, my projectors put out such a strong beam that even an H3 fog bulb would not be noticable..look below to how soon the light hits the pavement ahead of my bumper, Im dammn sure the stock fogs will fill in the gap before that

use the stock brackets and install proburners on top of the bracket. They look better than stock, and I get no jitter at all. If you break them you can buy another pair for $20. I can hit a bump or pothole and not get any jitter. Maybe you guys aren't tightening the fogs in place enough.

PIAA 510 FTW
Mine don't jiggle AT ALL. You can tighten the side screws of th PIAA to the fog light housing super tight so this eliminates the jiggle.
Look great,look stock and are very bright. 55w bulb rated at 85W
Glass lens is ALOT thicker and more heavy duty than other glass lenses
Warranty was very good. After about a year one lens had a hair line crack in it. A week later the bulb went out. Most likely due to moisture seeping in. All I did was send PIAA my original receipt (didn't even buy them through PIAA. I bought them from some retailer for about $75-$100 less than what PIAA wants for them). And they sent me a brand new lens and a new bulb. Got it w/in a week. Very good Cust. Serv.
SOLD Polarg M-28 super bright white bulbs. Replace yellow stock license plate bulbs. See add in classifieds.
WANTED:: EVO style CF hood

It's a fog light pattern, but when you have HID's it makes no difference. Fog lights are just there to look pretty, because they dont add any significant light output to the HID's
These look good and only cost $20. Put your yellow H3 bulbs in these and it will be perfect.

Nice! Exactly what I wanted to know. Now I have to find a "receipt" for them.
Anyone have one they want to share with me?

both my piaa's are cracked in the middle...i always figured it was to do with using them in extreme cold...the quick heating and cooling. Which, i don't do anymore...and viola! no more cracks!
i can't believe you shattered one though...i've run over a radial tire, which took out my mesh, foglight bracket, and lots of paint on my bumper- but no damage to the fog itself.
