Still waiting on some output pics !
The blazers are a little bit longer and can be modified to fit d2s bulbs. I think it is possible to mount it into the fogs, it's just that you have to make your own covers in the back of the housing to keep the elements out and to keep condensation out.

For the output pics I'll try to get some tonight when I get off of work.

I cam across those on ebay while I was searching for some bosch mini's for other members on here. It looks pretty good, but can't tell how good it is unless there are some output shots.

Alright here are the long awaited output pics. I finally got the time and a tripod to take these pics. Hope you like them.

Here is a pic of it on in the housing



This picture shows the cutoff at around 60 ft away, remember that these are foglights so it is not that bright at greater distance



This is shot about 10 ft away



10ft away, holding the housing at knee length pointing down



Pointing straight down 5 ft away

Fantastic output.
I doubt that I will get a modified D2s blazer now, since that is plenty of light if aimed correctly downward

Unless I want to cheat and aim it straight ahead... Hmmm

Good pics dude
