Im getting ready to pick up an ARB bumper. I was wondering what lights you guys are using to place in the bumpers fog light spaces? Im going with some Hella 4000's for the light tabs, but I dont know what to put in the other spaces.


Thanks.

well you can use the ARB ones you can buy form them that are upgraded from the ones in the bumper, or you can take a size dimension measurement of them lights in there already and search online for something that well fit.

The brackets are designed for the factory fogs.

DENIED..

IPA, ARB's lighting sister company does not make a light assembly that will fit in the 05-07 bumper fog lamp openings. I've called and asked.

I put in some cheap-assed E-bay lights, they suck. I'm now waiting for a local parts house to give me a price on a pair of PIAA 510's. They'll fit.

good job, how about be creative and do something out of the norm.

denied my arse lol.

there are plenty of options. you just have to look for them.

I had an ARB on my old yj for 15 yrs. My buddy had one on his XJ, hell even help fit after market lights for a FJ and Other toya crap. Its not hard if you think outside the box sometimes.

Jeepbum.. there are plenty of options. Just not one from ARB. I spoke to Andrew Schmelling at the ARB USA office. They do not offer a lamp assembly that fits in the openning on the bumper. Like I said, PIAA 510s will fit, heck, any 4" light that is 3 3/8" across the mounting tabs will fit in the brackets that ARB provides. I do not feel that what you may or may not have fitted to another ARB bumper in the past is going to help CRD Joe with the dilema he presently faces.

I'll say it again, IPA, ARB's lighting sister company, does not manufacture a lamp that will fit in the KJ ARB bumper fog light opennings. 'Nuff said.

Hey sorry last night was a long rough night for me. I understand that those lights are not ARB lights in the bumper. You are correct that PIAA lights well fit in the bumper. Also I have fitted many other lights (not your cheapo walmart, autozone crap) into them bumpers as well. Mounting brackets are easy to make if you know how. There are a ton of options besides the piaa's. If you search closely. I was going to try taking a few of those round leds that VisionX, rigid industries, and few other LED companies out there and try to get them incorporated into the arb round style bezel housing.

I have a possibility for you. I have a set of lights that came with my used ARB bumper but didn't use them (and have no idea what brand they are but I can look/take pics for you). If you're interested and are willing to pay the Priority Flat Rate, I'll ship them to you just to get them out of my garage. They come complete with the mounting brackets. Feel fre to PM me if you're interested.
