Purple? WOW

I had Nokya 3000K for almost three years. I switched over to 3000K HID's. Looks a bit better. Nokya would work well.

The day light is the only one I didn't change out, it looks like a high power smd led.

Right now I've got 3000K HIDs without the yellow capsule. I guess it makes it a little more versatile, if I wanna change them to match the Low beams

did your 98 come with OEM HID's equipped? if not then this is why....and i said OEM not aftermarket HID's.you cannot replace just the capsule, have to replace the whole fogs

The 98 did not come with OEM hid's, i had to get aftermarket. Its prob easier to get hid yellow fogs then to look for the capsule fog lit kit.

i edited my original post to reflect it saying OEM only HID's. my bad,i thought this was understood

i think (but im not 100% since i dont own one) on the 98's,HID's were a OPTION to add from the dealership(i know in the later years they were a option). just buy some 2001+ yellow fogs because THEY DON'T MAKE A CAPSULE FOG LIGHT KIT, not even sure where you go that from
