Just slap them on, use the bulbs that come with them, they may need adjusted but you’ll be ok. Everyone says, “Don’t get eBay headlights you’ll crash and die.” But its not really that big of deal lol

This type of fog light bulb looks good to the on looker and in pics but, unfortunately, does very little for light output. If you want good fogs get an LED projector style fog like the Morimoto XBs... I didn't want to spend the $200 on the Morimotos so I bought some EBay knock offs and am very very pleased with the output and results.

The advantage of the Morimotos are they are direct fit plug & play with no modification necessary.

The EBay lights I bought were actually 4" direct fit fog lights for a Jeep Wrangler. I had to modify the bumper behind the fogs in order to keep the adjustments for the fogs but they fit perfectly and are still adjustable.

So $200 for P&P or $40-$70 If you don't mind tinkering.

Show me ken, want to see said ‘modifications’ to bumper... i hacked mine up for my plow anyway... doesn’t bother me buddy.

She’ll be ok, I never really had a problem seeing with the ones I had on my yukon, but you may have people flash you, if they are adjusted to high.

I had HID's in the oem fogs at first but they melted the plastic housing, couldn't find anything that would take hid's, the morimotos I am sure are fine but I cant stand the piss yellow light myself.

I didn't think anyone would want to see the boring behind the bumper pics so I don't think I took any. You basically just cut the hole out behind the stock fog light and then I used a couple self taping screws through the bumper and into the adjustable housing that came with the fog lights.


Lights off

Halos hooked up to DRLs.

Fogs on halos (DRLs) off.

I did.

I converted the original DRL spot into parking/turn signals and used white/amber switchbacks.

I wanted to get the fogs with the white/amber switchbacks for DRL and turns but I cheaped out.... lol

Plus I don't think the turn signal halo works without power going to the white DRL halo so the turn signal halo would work during the day but at night, when the DRLs are off the turn signal halo wouldn't function.

I’m confused. Are you trying to make your Tahoe look like a Honda?
