Default 2009 Dodge Journey - Fog Lights Recommendation?

hey everyone,
I have a 2009 Dodge Journey SE 2.4L. I am looking to install new Fog Lights on there.

Currently it doesnt have any installed.

any recommended brand/make/model on the market?

I looked around and wasn't able to find much.

Many thanks

hey again everyone,
I looked around and found these 2 parts kits:-
- http://www.factorychryslerparts.com/.../82212736.html
- http://www.factorychryslerparts.com/...2212789AB.html

How would I know which is the right one for my car?

Only thing I notice between the 2 is 1 says "Without Auto HeadLights" and 1 says "With Auto HeadLights. is that for the Headlights switch that can be set to Automatic and it'll turn ON at certain point of the evening sunset or "lights condition"?


Thanks

Sounds rather simple to me!
Do you or don't you have auto headlight feature
on your DJ.
Do you have the switch or the sensor located on
the dash at the base of the windshield?

Remember also, if you install these, dealer has to "activate" them.

If you're talking about the "Round" looking thing thats on the Dash on the inside of the car, then yes I do. but I don't ever recall my head lights auto turning ON when outside light is less (evening/night time). I've always had to turn the dial on the left hand side signal stick to Turn the head lights ON.

Thanks

Oh ok. Thanks for the heads up.

I thought they were just install, wire up and ready to use.

I would say that the switch itself should have a "AUTO"
position indicated on it also although I have never looked
at '09 DJ SE model.

Our 09 SE did NOT have auto headlights. SE is the base model. Not many options to be had. The "round looking thing" (called a headlight switch/****) will have "auto" written on it somewhere if you have auto headlights.
