Default Replacement Foglight

I've been trying to figure out what to do, and I'm hoping someone here can give me a good suggestion.

It would appear a stone has decided to remove my driver side fog light from the land of the useful this winter. The local dealership wants almost $300 for a replacement... to which I'm sayin .. f....u....

Can anyone suggest a useful replacement? Is there anything better than OEM?

They have replacements on ebay. I bought a pair of Projector Fog lights that bolt right up. They are just as bright as a stock one. Paid $75 for the pair.

eBay has some very nice units. I've considered replacing mine even though there is nothing wrong with them. But since they serve no real purpose, I'll wait 'til there's an actual problem.

Here you go:

if you have existing working fogs the tipm is already supplying power so anything you fit in there under 35 watts will work fine. be careful going over 35 watts as that is all the stock wiring will safely handle.

You can get a set directly from Hella, thats what the OEM fog light housings are, I have a Mega Cab just like you and I replaced the stock light with a Hella bulb it is extremely bright.
