just do what i did... kinda. just install some foglights in there and dont ever worry about them being bright enough or having to change them in the future. only difference is all you'd have to install is regular foglights.

i missed that thread on your fog light mod could you give me a over-view of that mod like did it ever get to hot for the plastic, ect...whats the part # for a autozone-purchase.... how much more brighter do they get, does it discharge the battery faster? ---------------------------------Thanks

it does use up more battery life, but not as much as you would think. it definitely heats up too, but my plastics haven't melted yet. it cools down super fast. any foglights should work as long as they fit in the housing/lens.

I get 50 watt bulbs from advance auto and solder them in. They are about 3 times as brite as the stock bulbs. They cost around $6.00 each. Since I've removed my electrics I'll sell my set for the right price, any takers?

Thumbs up

[b]yeah like he said! go to home depot or lowes and match up pronges there are a few diff sizes i personally got the 50 watts , and blam i got instant daylight they dont get to hot, but they kill the batt within 30 mins, but you can get a better batt with more mille-amps.
