Ebay Fog Lights

[daddycreswell]

Anyone installed a set of these Ebay fog lights with brackets? I'm looking more for looks as to function, the wife don't do any off roading but she would like some "fog lights" and I don't see any reason to break the bank for a set. Link

You should at least consider getting fog lights that you can legally use on the road, with a sae approved beam pattern. The ones you linked to aren't fogs, they have a 30* wide (very narrow) spot beam. Fog lights have a wide beam pattern that light up the shoulders of the road well. Sae legal means they have a vertical beam cutoff that won't shine up into oncoming drivers' eyes.

I was on a budget too, but wanted good fogs. I went with a pair of Diode Dynamics SS3 3" fogs ($170 on sale), a pair of SBL sae driving lights ($90 pr), mounted on $30 eBay brackets.

You can get a NiLight wiring kit for about $20 on Amazon.

4x4TruckLEDs also offers a Stage series fog light. They're presently $400 but were recently on sale for 20 or 30% off during the holidays.

6 lights, brackets, wiring harness for $125. I'll be amazed if it's not a scam or absolute garbage.

If you try it, let us know.

If you just want something to fill the space in the bumper, these are probably fine.
If you need something to be functional and dependable, then the US made options listed in the the thread are a good choice.
Once installed, the eBay ones will probably look fine. Especially during the day and not being energized.

"A bit more"...


... over 4x the cost is not 'a bit more'.. that's a shit ton more. Especially for a guy who in his original post told everyone that the lights are going to be used as a fashion statement more than anything else.

I realize that theres some wierd genetic fuckery going on in the minds of salesmen that makes it compulsory to try and pry every last penny they can out of current and/or potential customers... but that statement is just beyond ridiculous lol.


To the OP... buy the lights. They might not be fog pattern.. no.. but they CAN be aimed so their functional for your wife AND safe for oncoming traffic. Take the 500$ you saved from not purchasing the incredibly overkill setup from ledshills.com.. take the wife out to eat.. buy her a kitten.. and get ready to beat them cheeks once you two get home.

Also to the OP, the raptor style fog lights (from Mabett/other sellers) also look great in that spot IMO.

You get what you pay for! OP already dished out good money for his Wildtrak. IMO I would want lights that not only look good, but also function well as the rest of my Bronco. Complement my spend on the Wildtrak and leverage the AUX switches to work as designed. Why take short cuts with throw away lights?

Wow folks here are deaf. The lights are not for you, for your truck or for your application. Read the OP again. Concerned about LOOKS primarily.

This is one of the best responses/posts I have ever read on Bronco6g!!

There’s a lot of options out there. Here are some of the ones that I’ve checked out that are budget friendly (aside from the Oracle) and look good (here's looking at you Raptor Style ones!):

I paid good money for my bronco too... but I didn't hesitate to at all to purchase harbor freight ditch lights for it why? Because they function as well as the rest of my Bronco.

Really. The lights are for a fashion statement.

Suggesting that 650$ lights are the way to go in this situation is comparable to suggesting to your nieghbor who wants to buy a starter toolkit so he can do basic maintenance to his lawnmower that he absolutely NEEDS to buy snap-on stuff, and buy a snap-on box to store them in.

The thought is about as unreasonable as it gets.

Sure buy them for looks but please don’t turn them with oncoming traffic…better yet, don’t hook them up…

I agree with your sentiment about buying lights for ones needs, and not spending 4x just because some forum nerds said to. This is the only part I'm not very sure about. A lot goes into beam pattern and cut off design. I am not confident these ebay spot beam pattern lights can ever be both functional and safe for oncoming traffic.

If OP only intends to turn them on when no oncoming traffic is present, then he should go ham on these.

I don't know that they will ever be turned on, like I said in the beginning more for looks than anything else.
