LED bulbs for Fog lights ? (w/ pics)

anyone ever think of replacing there fogs with something like this ? i know they won't light up the road as normal bulbs but how about for look wise ?


similar price to normal fogs and suppose to last longer since they run on lower wattage and led's are suppose to last forever


any thoughts or last words before i purchase these?

I have the ones on the bottom and I have blue rockblocker film on my fogs. It doesn't light up the road at all but I got sick of the film getting burned so I replaced them. I'll take some pictures tonight and post it.

i guess what i was hoping for someone to say was that led lights will look a lot different because of all these led's reflecting off the chrome of the headlight housing !!

guess not huh ?!?!

Sorry for the confusion. The OEM bulbs were burning my films so I replaced them with the LEDS. Now I don't have to worry about burning them.

I installed them on Tuesday. I replaced every bulb on my car with LEDS except the H1's and the turn signal bulbs. Ya I like the way they look. The fogs with the regular bulbs didn't light up the road that much anyway.... I want to get rid of that ring inside the fog though to get some more reflection.

It's not very bright compaired to the incandecent light bulbs. I put it in there for looks basically. Once I run out of blue rock blocker films, I'm going to put some clear ones on so it doesn't look so blue.

LED Bulbs are more aesthetic than function. They won't light up the road at all.


Now HID fogs on the other hand.....
