$300 for fog lights.....hell no!

Looking for ideas for replacing my busted up factory fog lights. I'm not willing to pay $300 for new ones or even $150 for someone's used crap. What options have worked for you that are good looking and functional? Pics would be good. Thanks.

If you're not concerned with exact factory replacement look, there are tons of them on ebay.

There used to be a aftermarket company that made some the were darn near a spot on match for the factory stuff.

I bought a pair of foglights for my camaro at a local junkyard. Cost me about $15. They are aftermarket but look really darn close to OEM. Check the import/SUV section as a lot of people add foglights to them, more than other types it seems like.

Thanks for the idea. Never thought of checking the rice burner section.

I found mine on an old corolla or Hyundai something. It was a few years ago so I don't remember exactly. The rice paddies( as I like to call them) are great for aftermarket electronics. Fog lights, stereos, speakers, amps, etc.
