Default Got some Projector Fogs

I've been looking for a set of Blazer fogs for a long time, but since they are long out of production they are really hard to find. I stumbled onto a pair in the clearance bin while I was at Vatozone the other day and snagged them. My friend had a 55 watt HID kit left over from one of his projects, and he gave it to me for this project.

I converted them to an extremely bright bulb from a super dim 55 watt Halogen, because I'm not using these to fight fog. We don't get fog where I live, and actual fog lights serve no useful purpose here. Got them installed, and It's like driving with your high beams on from 2 feet and lower. It's so awesome! Nobody is blinded because of the cutoff and I can now see wonderfully at night. Pretty good for a project that cost me $25!

This is what HID output SHOULD look like, for all you with HID kits in your headlights:


All mounted up:

Those fogs would look good on the POS-10. Of course, matching paint would look nice on it too!

you crack me up you go on about how all HID lights and kits are illegal chinese junk that should never be on the road and projector lights are mostly all crap with low output in other threads yet you mod both and put them on you truck???...lol
Thats the same sharp cut off my projector halos have btw...I do agree with you on the fact that they need to be in the right type housings...too many kids with the stupid inefficient deep blue lights blinding me because they are stuffed in old school halogen housings reflecting light everywhere but where its supposed to go..

Blazer projector fogs are the best fog lamps on the market. I did everything right when I installed them. They are aimed low, and the parallax point is only about 35 feet in front of the truck. They are well below the view of any oncoming motorist.

And yes, all HID kits are Chinese Trash. However when I get them for free, I DGAF.
