2027, Fog Lights for my RS
Posted by 2GXTASY, Mar-12-01 12:46 PM
Ok, so I found a post that claims Pilot Fog Lights are the best and most cost effective way to go when dealing with aftermarket fog lights for an Eclipse RS. My quesion is what series of Pilot? Or if there are better suggestions of which fog light to go with I am open to opinions. Looking for something that will fit inside stock housing. What do you guys and gals think?

I got my foglights from a local Wal-mart. They are called "Diamond Blue Blazer Fog Lamps" -- They fit perfectly and look sweet. During the day the lenses look blue, at night with the lights on they are a nice yellow. 80$, good deal.

I just bought Pilot fogs and I like them alot. I don't know what series they are right now, but I'll check if you wanted to (I could also take some pics if you wanted to see them on my car). They are oval and maybe 2"x4". There are 2 bulbs in each light, a blue bulb and a white bulb. The white bulbs are almost too bright to use on the street, but the blue lights look kick ass, especially on a blue car. The lens is extra thick glass
and alltogether, they are very good quality :)

Jen,

That would be great! I would appreciate it very much. I have been looking for pilots. Does anyone know off hand what the measurments of the stock openings are? Oh and will I need to get new brakets without the slits in them or will it work just as well to cut the slits out of the ones I have now?

Chris,

I am very interested! What brand are they? Are you sure they will fit perfectly? I really don't want to have to do any type of shaping to get them to fit. Just to make sure, I want them to fit in the stock openings. Thanks.

Pilot makes a kit specifically designed for the Eclipse. All you do is cut away a little plastic spash guard and screw into the stock holes. Comes with mounting and everything you need perfect fit. Part number is PL-118_ B=Blue C=Clear

I got mine from http://www.coolwheels.com for $110.00 they are on sale for less now.
