Has anybody tried these? I like the way they look but do they actually work well enough for driving in fog / rain?

I have buyers products LED fog lights on my truck (1350 lumens) [part # 1492115] and I absolutely love them. I'm sure they'd be about the same. The pure white light they put out is amazing

I just bought a pair of 68 SMD LED bulbs for my fog lights, they are bright for what they are, but have no projection to them, making them pretty much useless for driving...

The one's the OP mentioned have the projection built in the glass. They should be perfect for the application.

Yeah, I was just mentioning the LED bulbs (halogen replacements) are not really worth buying, unless used for interior. I'd like to try a pair of those out actually...

Yea, I have the 100 LED plug n play lights for my reverse lights. They're bright, but like you said, you can't see shit 5 feet past the truck.

I just installed the same 68 SMD LED's in my tails and reverse lights yesterday, which replaced the older 5mm 19 LED bulbs I was using. Slightly brighter, and work pretty decent at night. But, as always, its not enough. There is a comparison shot in my st thread...

What about the Fog Lights at http://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...itch-for-ford-ranger-01-04-super-bright.html/ ?

Anyone ever use them ?

I am thinking along the same lines but have been unsure of the light output.

These look similar if not the same thing but for $50:

Anyone have comments on the lights ?

Wonder what the Lumen output is ?

Those are identical to the ones shown on ford trucks. It's coming out of Cali from ebay, so I would think its better than the chinese stuff...

led's are awesome if they are done right

I like LED's I have a 40" LED lightbar on top of my truck (see build page) and I got a pair of LED bulbs that fit in the stock fog lights that are pretty blue but totaly useless when driving.

good find scrambler I like that price much better

 

[RangerSVT]

Same ones I got, if you got em from china via ebay. Here they are on the right....

I thinking of taking the endcap off the LED bulb, and replacing it with a 1 watt LED in hopes it will give more projection...
