Default Fog Lights

Question....

Has anyone seen a fabricated fog light (similar to the one the pix) but for the '95 SC3??? Since my stock fog light no better than lighting a candle in the dark, I would like to replace them. If you do know where to obtain something like that or similar to that, please provide me with the link. thank you in advance!

The stock headlights should be pretty bright already, they are 55w H3. Maybe you just have old bulbs? Did you try replacing them yet? If you want to go aftermarket foglights, buy some Hella 90mm HID foglights and fabricate your own fiberglass cover for it. The fogs will be brighter than low beams. Otherwise you can pretty much buy any aftermarket foglight and make a cover for it.

Lex400sc,

thanks for the reply. I have replaced them this past weekend with the Plasma white and the Super white but it's still dark. I even tried cleaning the lens with the plastic cleaner that someone had recmmended on this forum to see if it helps but no luck... I was even tempted to increase the Watts but I was afraid that I might melt the wires. I will look into the Hella HID foglights that you've mentioned. thanks!

i saw those exact fog lights in Canoga Park at a place called sound fantasy. they sell audio stuff but they had those exact lights on one of their display cars, atleast im pretty damn sure.


but you shouldnt have to replace the whole lights, just get new bublbes cuz the stock ones are pretty bright- or if you want to change to HID- the new Hella HID fog lights are bright bright bright bright

i would always be careful when buying stuff like that on ebay. The only person on ebay i would buy from is this one company, or guy, who give a life time warranty. But if you buy from someone who does this, make sure you get the warranty, because a lot of the aftermarket stuff on ebay is either faulty or not what they say it is... so be careful
