Or just buy my whole darn bumper with the fogs already in there wire it up to the low beams and good to go, but shipping would be a huge pain I guess

| Post subject: | Libby Fog Lamp Replacement Question... |
Does anyone know the dimensions of the stock fog lamps (Height, Width, & Depth) that fit in '04 and similar Libertys (the ones that go IN the bumper)? My Sport did not come w/ fog lamps stock, and I really don't see the need to shell out all that dough for an OEM kit, but I want a lamp that will fill up the entire hole. If anyone knows the exact dimensions (or could possible measure theirs and let me know), or has a good recommendation of an aftermarket kit for our KJs, please let me know asap. Thanks! |

$165 isn't too bad for OEM considering you need to do the switches and wiring which of course are all included in an OEM kit. Especially on the KJ, I gotta say the fogs in the bumper do work amazingly. Its a huge difference over just the headlights and I use them all the time. they rock on my 03 sport. http://jparts.com/product_info.php?cPat ... aa29ad6dae |

I just want something to use w/ my HIDs; $165.00 is a little more than I want to spend (although that's a darn good price on that kit!), and I can wire directly to the parking lamps (w/ a relay and in-line fuse) so the switches/wiring are not an issue. Anyone have any dimensions or recommendations? |

Just an FYI. the above is from a Jeep Dealership...so they are all OEM 100%. They are called Savage Chrysler Dodge out of PA. |

hEY MAN. It might be better just to get the OEM set up. I spent WEEKS of looking for lights to fit the stock cut out. Nothing seemed to fit just rite. Plus, if you want to wire it to your head light switch, you will need to do alot of work. The OEM comes with new steering colum multi switch and every thing you need for a smooth easy install. Just my thoughts on this. Like I said before, I has a hell of a time looking for something cheep and that will fit in the cut out. It is a realy odd dimention of the cut out. |

If you just want a brighter light, I beleive Hella, PIAA, and Sylvaina have brighter replacement bulbs style 9145. prices starting a $20.00 each and going for each manufacturer. Yeah I'm old and LAZY but if all you want is brighter lights there are a lot of replacement with out having to beat yourself up trying to refab you front end. Just my $.02 worht

I think he said its not about brighter bulbs...his stocker has the fog holes in the bumper but didnt come with the fog light package. He needs to find the whole kit to install, not just a bulb replacement. |

well to me it sounds like you might as well just go and spend the money. You already spent the cash on the HID's anyway so why not do the same for the fogs. Hella makes hid lights too. And where did you get the conversion for yours anyway? |

FYI----For the OEM foglamps 100w 9005 high beam bulbs(for a GM 4 light system) will work,just a slight trim on one of the locking tabs is needed to make them fit(like a 1/16" shaved off one side of one of the 3 prongs) and the OEM connector plugs right into the 9005 bulb..Way brighter then the stock 27w bulbs,just a thought. I have been running 9005's in my fogs for 5 years now. |

100watt! Mine had 55watt stock and I replaced them with 65watt 9005's by shaving a tab off. Been working great for a couple years now. It made a noticeable difference for sure. |
