Swap bulbs from L to R and see if the problem follows the bulb. Your ballast getting wet down there?

Btw is your left fog light dead? Mine has been acting up lately. Sometimes one bulb turns on and sometimes it doesn't. Turning the fogs off and back on fixes it. Ballast issue perhaps?
Do what Rockstar said, swap either the bulb or the ballast to the opposite side and see if the issue persists. I dont have hid;s in my fogs at the moment. I bought a set from HIDxtra, bulbs started losing color after a year, got warranty bulbs, and the ballasts died the year after, bought a new kit from HIDxtra since it was out of warranty, one of the balast shorted out after a month and kept blowing my fog lamp fuse. Got so fed up with it, i just ripped them out.

Never buying from HIDxtra again. Not only did my fog lights die the first time around, one of the headlights did too, and they ended up sending me the wrong bulb on warranty. So much headache!

Ahh good call guys. I'll try swapping the bulbs over and see if it still continues. If it does, I'll swap ballasts to make sure that's the issue. I'll most likely order from theretrofitsource if I need to replace the bulbs or ballasts. I have their morimoto 3five bulbs for my headlights and they're holding up very well for over a year now.

I wouldn't doubt that it gets a bit of moisture in there. I'm missing the clips for the inner fender cover on the one side since they all broke from taking the liner off and on a few times. I wanted to order replacements off ebay but it looks like there are a few different sizes. Anyone happen to know the lengths and widths of those clips?

Haha, thanks dude! Here is a teaser picture of a 4000 Mile trip I did this past weekend. Starting in Canada, through Zion National Park, Grand Canyon, San Luis Rio Mexico, Vegas and a straight shot home. I will create a new thread about the actual trip which we labelled the gumball 4000.
