had to get new fog lights

Post by Liquor Assassin »

was driving down wild horse and some critter rand out and busted one of my amber fog light lenses out, went to autozone and they didnt have the fogs with those gold lenses anymore so i got the ones with a clear lens and amber reflector... let me know what you think

didnt really want to do this but i wanted to have working fog lights that looked the same, chris let me know if you know where to get the ones with the original lenses or if they even make them still, also they seem dim to me... dont know why really, maybe i'll try using the new wires i got to see if that brightens them up a bit... the old wires are pretty bad

just removed the little black bulb cover inside the housing on both of them
now let me know what you think, i think with some amber bulbs instead of white ones it will look even better

for crist sakes

advanced has them instock

auto zone has them depending on the store i guess but i just seen a set there two days ago at the one up my street.


and compare to the old one's they now look like crap .. they look like cheap aftermarket fogs instead of looking like OEM fogs

and it's not the wiring its the fact that clear lenses are not bright appearing in day light

oh and they looked dim before cause there was a black piece in there blocking the bulb, i didnt realize how much brighter they would get when you took that out before... i took it out and they look fine now, honestly after going to two autozones and neither one had it... i figured they stopped making the amber lenses.
