USDM s14 kouki foglight VS. JDM s14 kouki foglight - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Are the JDM and USDM S14 Kouki Foglights the same? Does the JDM front Bumper come with those black covers around the foglights? if not, where can they be sourced?

projectRDM · 01-02-2005, 09:13 AM

Not the same from what I've seen on Ebay.

SimpleS14 · 01-02-2005, 09:15 AM

They are not the same and the black covers come with the foglights.

KOUKI KA-T · 01-03-2005, 06:32 AM

Not the same?? They are IDENTICAL, I have them both. Only difference is the metal bracket they mount to the bumper with. The actual fog light is the same, but you'll never find just the bracket (or black surrounds) which is why you'll end up having to buy the whole foglight assembly anyway. Too bad some of these importers wouldn't just grab the bracket and save people a lot of money, but then again they wouldn't be making any money, unless they charged like 50$ for that piece of metal....

Don't forget the bolts on the bottom...they are not the same.

Yes you can, very easily.

EDIT: But you would still need the black surround pieces or else it would look like crap.

Funny you ask that....because that's exactly what I did. I took the projectors from zenki foglights and put them into the kouki housing....

As for the JDM foglights that I have...I'm just going to use some amber HELLA bulbs.

OptionZero · 01-04-2005, 01:17 AM

how hard was the retrofit, any cutting/retooling required, or mainly just a simple bolt on and some trimming?

What size bulb is a zenki fog? I kno a kouki is an h3

cookie · 07-28-2005, 11:08 AM

SimpleS14 · 08-07-2005, 07:34 AM

Bulb size is H3 55W

theicecreamdan · 08-07-2005, 11:42 AM

i've taken apart zenki projectors, and I used to have kouki fogs, I imagine it would take a lot of cutting and some basic fabrication.

Dnrkouki25 · 03-30-2012, 10:13 PM

So can the jam kouki fogs fit the oem kouki bumper

bigs · 03-31-2012, 06:46 AM

^You'll need the USDM brackets.

I've got some for sale if anyone needs them.
