Got this little problem fixed today. I was doing about 2 mph in a turn lane when the truck started pulling like crazy to the right. The rear bolt for the front right upper control arm was just gone. And about 5 minutes earlier I was doing 75 over a pretty high bridge.

Yikes...

Drill a small hole in the bottom of your fog light in order for the water to drain out. This should eliminate future floods as well.

These darn things NEVER seem to be watertight.

Great idea! Any particular place or just anywhere in the bottom of the light? I might go a step further and attach a rubber tube to make a vent.

4 different OEM FOGlights in the last 2 years. They all leak eventually. Ive siliconed, taken apart and resealed. They just leak. And when they are air tight. The moisture from your has no where to go and then they fog over. Drill a hole and be done.

I trimmed my fog lights to fit a projector, had to trim a bit and then heat the plastic to mold it around the projector. I'm happy with the fitment, now I gotta build out the housing a little bit to enclose the projector. From the front you can't really see much difference, behind is a different story lol

Anyone know how to seal around the bulb on a h1 projector?

I originally planned on using the depo projectors, but It turns out the spec d tuning ones that came with my headlights have better output. I ended up making a custom curved flat cutoff sheild for it and it helped the output some. really its just a way to put these projectors to use lol

Yea, Once I made the curved cutoff shield for the projector the output surprised me. I really thought it was much worse before my mini retrofit.
