'98 Expy Fog lights replacements

Has anyone replaced the factory fog lights? I am looking for some that will fit the stock holes in the bumper. I hit a deer and broke one of the stock ones 2 years ago and glued it back together. Now it holds water and the lens is stained limiting light output.

You might want to check with PIAA. They have a very wide selection. FWIW, I put a couple little 1400 series lights up front and do they ever put out some light.

PIAA offers a kit that facilitates the mounting of a pair of their smaller lights into the front bumper slots that immediately flank the front license plate. Your issue appears to be that you want to retain lighting in the factory location. Why not just replace the fog light assembly with the factory part? Probably the cheapest way to go, particularly if you can pick up a good used one.

The factory lights I think were over $100. I can't remember. Trying to get more bang for the buck.

of course, you COULD always try wreck yards for the unit and then up-grade the bulb to something that throws more light. maybe thats too easy tho....

You could try ebay, most replacement foglights with brackets are in the ~$50 range.

Check out www.rockauto.com if you want OEM parts. I believe that replacement fog lights are like $50. Enjoy.

Put silverstar bulbs in, it makes a huge difference. Those fogs use a 9005 series bulb.
