I need a big big favor.

Can someone kindly let me know the exact measurement (height, length, diameter) for the dual halo Land Cruiser fog lights, please???

I would guess the Land Cruiser dual fog lamps and the Land Cruiser Dual halo fog lamps are the same in measurement.

Yeah man, no worries... I have mine downstairs (I was swapping the lights/housings last night) so I can get them for you in a bit.

lowKut - The box actually has dimensions for both (halo/non-halo) versions, and as you said, they're equal in size. Anywho... here are the dimensions:

220mm wide
107mm tall
110mm deep

Hope this helps

lowKut - No problem man.

Anyway, I received the H3C bulbs today and test-fitted them...the good part is that the bulbs are short enough to fit into the housings pretty easily. However, the bad part is that the base of the H3C's will need to be modified slightly to fit. I didn't take any pictures but I'll try to explain: if you're familiar with the base of H3-style bulbs, they have 2 indents, one being a half circle and the other being a half square. The half square indent on the H3C isn't as deep as the one on the fog light housing, so it'll need to be either bent or cut for the bulb to sit flush. So... yeah, fun fun.

I just ordered a set of the fog lights last week I should have them by tomorrow I am stoked. I am going to have my boy paint the housing though so that way it blends in better with my front bumper.

I bet one could get a sheet of metal and make a direct fit no bumper cutting plate and put a pair of these instead




Even cheaper and you get projectors I'm DEFINITELY gonna try that!

Wow... totally forgot about this

Anyway, the measurements that I posted were for the entire housings. I can get the ones from the lenses but I'll have to dig them out of my garage. I've been waiting on my body shop to call me so that I can drop the car off since he'll be painting/installing them along with painting the rest of the front end and fixing my jacked up job of fender rolling lol. Also going to put my new [to me] Taba grille on but marks behind the TTE grille would take away from it...

Either way, should have some pictures posted in a couple of weeks

@ pmlexus - I look forward to seeing yours done as well man
