ivey_usmc Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 What led fog lights are best for my15 journey? I bought some off ebay ( Yea I know) and they are less bright than the oem bulbs. Not sure with oem is but these led's are 1200lms each and suck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivey_usmc Posted November 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 so what brand and lumens would that be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2late4u Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 i was just checking led fog light bulbs and most are rated at about 1000 or 1200 lms each they make it look higher in the bold print like 2000lm but that is divided between the 2 bulbs in the small print. so dont know if you can buy bigger lamps as i didnt see any,but also i didnt search that long. good luck ill just stick with the org ones as i dont use them anyways... jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam H Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 The problem with higher lumen fog lights is that the beam is not as focused as say, headlights, and increased brightness can cause a lot of glare for other drivers. I bought these and use them sparingly for that reason while driving on rural roads. They have worked for over a year with no issue. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00UBHDMT8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twist the old ones out, unplug, plug the new bulbs in and twist them back into the sockets. Pretty simple. I did mine by raising the front end up a bit and reaching.

(glad i had bought some of the push pins couple of months ago to be used when the need was to arrive) to replace the old ones that didnt survive the removal process...

You need to be able to work without actually seeing what you are doing though. i was talking about entire led assemblies not just led bulbs... i do not have them but plan on getting them soon. as far as install it shouldn't be more than taking out a few screws and swapping the assembly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkeaton Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Oh. My bad. The whole assembly might involve removing the bumper cover. Bryman31 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2016Redline Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Pop off the push pins and pull the wheel well liner out. Then reach in and remove the screws on the assembly. There is nothing to it. Very simple to do. jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaviG Posted April 20, 2018 Report Share Posted April 20, 2018 Whats the longest size of led bulb that can fit in the factory housing? I'm seeing ones on Amazon that range from 2 to 2.6 inches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm seeing ones on Amazon that range from 2 to 2.6 inches When I have a question such as this, I go and remove the bulb and check the depth myself. Best way to get an accurate answer. Go with the shortest bulb you can when in doubt. Edited April 22, 2018 by jkeaton 2late4u and OhareFred 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
