Fog light question
 

So have any of you "do it yourselfers" found a economical way to replace the lens on 84-89 fog lights? Also why are they heavy? Anyway to lighten them up a bit?

Oops! My bad, as one might say....:rolleyes:

Mondays can really be Hell...........

rip 'em out and use the hole to cool the brakes

Search for ZOANAS and I think Wil Ferch on this board. They did install some other lights.

If you don't use them though, do what nostatic says :)

I still use mine.

Picked up my car from it's tech inspection and oil change -

It's running like a top -

Got home and one of my fog lights had a little breakerage...

No problem - I have been working on a project anyway to add some more fresh air to the brakes and carrera oil cooler.

Pretty cool trick there JeremyD thanks for the tip

JeremyD,
I'
ve seen something like that at any autopart store but never know if they really light up the road. How are their visibility?
Thanks.

As well or better than the existing fogs, which are maginal at best. I just went with the standard driving lap - being low like that does not help on the driving light end... But definitely better than stock

Last question regarding foglight, I went to autozone and found your type, also saw they have something with projector lense look like the pic below.
Do you know if the one with projector lense would give more lighting visibility?
Thanks.

Somebody call??

These are Hella 450 driving lights. I do a lot of night driving, and they are flamethrowers. 1 mile pencil beams, and with my relay setup, I can use them with my high or low beams.

A pair of these might do the trick. Carbon fiber air ducts, weighs just 200 grams each.

What is your relay setup? I just got some of those exact lights for Christmas and I'm trying to install them but I'd like them to come on with the High Beams only but run on the same switch on the dash.
Any ideas?

Nevermind, we got it all figured out, and those 450s are Amazing!

Yeah, be prepared to get flashed if you forget to shut them down for oncoming cars. They will burn holes through trees.
