Yup its pretty clear these bulbs are not a match for the Cruze's reflectors. The link is as follows https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Supe...ceBeautifyAB=0 These bulbs dont have that tiny glare shield and plus they are those Cree with lenses type of bulb. I bought them before any of these LED threads on TeamBHP especially Vid's on experimenting on his ecosport. I guess I will have to experiment with the CSP in line type with the tiny glare shield ones which mimics the standard halogens. Anybody know a particular model which could suit the Cruze well? |

I think COB type would be more suited to fog-lamps as they would be more like flood type throw compared to csp which will have more of a cutout. I am currently using Phillips in my fog-lamps and they are the csp type which give a clear cutout line. I would have preferred flood type to be honest for fogs and clear cutout for headlamps. |

Just saw the link. Those are terrible!!!!:eek: No shield, uses the dome type array LED and some weird 3 LEd pattern. No wonder you are seeing no difference between low and high beam and no low beam cut off. The light is just everywhere! |

Something like this below mentioned link would be a better option. The H4 has a shield and would give a good cut off line which is very much needed. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/2Pcs...37114c4dM6vf3b |

Yea this is just a result of a poor LED light design. Just 3 LEDs with no clear cut off shields is the culprit. I have already give you few suggestions in earlier post. Look at those and pick something the lines. |

For the Figo H4 is a challenge in fitting since the entire LED assembly needs to fit within the headlight enclosure. |

Vidyut, is it possible to use LED fog lamps to get better visibility in 1st gen Figo? I was going through amazon and there are multiple options there. But not getting any concrete answer if it is worth. |

1st gen Figo's fogs have a good spread but dont go far. I am planning on upgrading on mine just to have consistent color with headlights. But to get good throw you need to rely on main headlights. In my view you should be able to fit a H4 inside the headlight assembly. I have done it on my car, shown in pics. |

If the Figo uses the same fog lamps as Ecosport, the fogs can be adjusted for height using the rotating knob/dial. I aligned my fogs slightly higher and they are now just a little below the low beam. Have replaced the bulb with HID and they are pretty awesome. Check my thread. https://www.team-bhp.com/forum/diy-d...ml#post4457492 But you have to remember the Ecosport fog lamp housing is very high up, so it works. In the Figo it is lower down so the shadows on the road will be more. In essence you can add fogs to supplement the headlights, but you need to upgrade the headlights for sure if you are not happy with the illumination. |

For fogs I will prefer the 2700K HIDs any ay. I have 3000K 55W HIDs in my Civic. The only regret is that I should have opted for 2700K. |

Something here doesn't make sense. 3000K bulbs with 55W ballasts will actually be whiter light due to higher current than 3000K bulb with 35W. That said I got 35W 4300K HID's on my fogs and they are perfect. IT has the right temperature of white with a tinge of yellow. Need to compare with 3000K though. |
