16836, After market fog light questions
Posted by Cresquin, Mar-10-02 10:57 AM
first those of you who do have fog installed how do you have the switching set up? dedicated switch? on with ignition? on with lights? on with high beams?

second those of you with amber or blue lights how do they perform? can you see more road with the fogs on?

third which shape is best? I see a lot of people with the circular lights and projectors, and I see some eliptical ones as well. what are the differences that shape makes.

fourth what brand or brands are the best value for the money. I don't have a lot of money here, but I'm nt gonna go get the wal-mart special fog lights for $15, that is just suspect.

fifth where did you mount them? I see most mounted in the second hole from the outside of the bumper (on 97-99s).

you can do them any of the ways you just stated, it just depends on how you prefer them to turn on. if you need help, search it b/c there are several right ups for each of those ways. or just ask for a specific way.

i have superwhite bulbs in my stockers, and it helped my vision.. but then again, i started out with no fogs, so ANY new light was more light for me. but i would think that if you want more lighting, i would just stick with stock bulbs or piaas. the cheaper bulbs look great, but perform not so great.

again, it up to your personal preference.. but most of the stock 97-99 front ends taht i see use circular ones and they use them in the stock fog light housing.

haha.. i would be interested in knowing info on this as well, b/c i will possibly be looking for some in the near future. my friend has piaas and they look great.. high visability and good look to them, but then again, you get what you pay for.

yup.. thats the stock fog light housing.. i think they look good mounted in there.. but thats my opinion
