Replacing OEM Fogs

eliptik · 09-10-2009, 12:48 AM

I have an 07 FG2 coupe that came with the OEM fogs already installed and I want to change them out for yellow fogs. I've been looking at aftermarket fogs such as ones from K2 and I'm wondering if I buy these will it just be a straight plug n play? Can I just plug the new fogs in through the OEM harness or do I have to disconnect the OEM harness and plug in the new ones?

y they crack way too easy. just get a yellow overlay for the oem ones

yeah i've tried the overlays but they burn too easily. you think it would be a better idea just to keep the oem ones on?

yup! me imo the clear looks way better and cleaner I dont really like the yellow fogs too much, Id just do yellow bulbs with the clear fogs

Dont stay stationary with the overlays for too long or they will melt. I've had my overlays for about 5 months with no sign of melting. Dont get the aftermarket ones, I had them for my 06 Coupe and they cracked within a month!

Just change to the yellow bulb. OEM is way better than cheap, under $200, aftermarket fog lights.
