    Pre facelift fog lights?

    Hey guys I've been having heaps of trouble with visibility in the fog lately. Deadset cannot see a thing! I have a pre facelift EK1 and was wandering what i need to do in order to install fog lights? Thanks in advance.

    just so you know.. oem fog lights literally do nothing

    they aim very low and don't have a clean cutoff meaning addition glare when you use them

    not worth your money IMO,

    If you're out on country roads use your high beams and for additional jdm points use yellow bulbs

    High beam in fog reduces visibility.

    Get some Narva foglights with yellow globes and mount in the air duct on your front bumper. Will also add JDM points

    i found the yellow highs were able to cut through fog better hence the suggestion


    but generally yeah you need aftermarket fogs

    thanks for all your help guys! how hard is it to install the navra ones? because my highbeams screw up my vision like now tomorrow and i cant aim them now as they become useless on country roads when there's no fog. is there any DIY's on here for the navra ones or similar?


    and so oem foglights do exist??

    My old foggies...

    U need to adjust them to aim higher if u want more light spread, but over all they should be just as powerful if not slighty brighter than ur head lights, infact u can drive with just foggies due to how bright they are haha... ofcourse not recommended

    and remember there not designed to be used as primary lighting... they are only there to warn others or oncoming traffic that ur coming, not for driving in fog as main lighting source..... they light up the road really good as well when in deep fog, but not long distance.... If u want proper driving lights for fog as others suggested go narva or the more expensive Hella lights, lightforce etc etc

    If u decide on these oem type foggies, just make sure they are stanley glass ones, as they are the proper ones, not the cheap plastic covers.

    Well according to the law over in Wait Awhile,



    where in the second paragraph, it says that you should be using foggies only, not both.

    so in order to drive safely.. you should be doing about 20km/h
