Marine Fog Lights

I recently replaced the foglights on my TA, i had some old lights off of my boat that had perfect lenses but the housings were destroyed. they fit perfect in the housings on my car and man what an IMPROVEMENT.... they dont have the metal deflector infront of the bulb so its like another set of highs... must suck driving towards me

Re: Marine Fog Lights

They have driving lights at wal mart that fit perfectly too. Theyre in a box that says Blazer on it. Theyre only like 17.99. And they also dont have any reflectors in front of the lights. Theyre so bright I sometimes use them alone as my headlights and I can see just fine.

Re: Marine Fog Lights

Today I got some new fog lights from trusty ole wal mart for $18. Same size/same look (except new!) for my 90 firebird (GTA style) cause my old ones look like crap (17 yrs old...meh). So Im gonna do the same thing as you did mlaskow86.
But I need some advice before I begin please....-I need to adjust the pass side as its pointing a bit in the up position.
-Could someone explain the obvious to me as how to remove my old housing and replace//adjust these?? I could just use the new lights w/the old housings or replace the whole thing.
-I actually did mess around and took a the lens/housing off from the opening in front, so its a little famiar to me so far, but....
-I do not want o break something like I usually do.
-I will prob splicing in to the existing ground & power.
-They are mounted from the top right? (thats how it looks anyway).
Thanx!
