View Full Version : Fog lights....
Jaywade24 02-11-2004, 08:48 PM Hey guys help me out here....Does the xb need fogs lights or not???? I don't think the front looks right without the fogs lights....am I wrong do you agree....I've see some aftermarket fogs that I like even more....I really do think it needs em....what do you guys think???
House_Of_Steel 02-11-2004, 08:57 PM My opinion is the front lokks empty without them or something there, never can have enough light !
Scion offers a decent package, the price is a little steep in my opinion, if there are some aftermarkets and the price and install would be a snap then I would sway away from Scion and get the others - Same plugins and wiring and so forth !
Hope that helps
randode 02-11-2004, 09:03 PM it looks better with them, but they dont do a whole lot when they are turned on.
SoCalbBox 02-11-2004, 09:04 PM I agree that something needs to be in that space, but the brightness needs to be increased.

Amen. Gotta have something there, but it's a lot of money for just a fill for a slot. :?
showpaojoe 02-11-2004, 09:26 PM i like the fogs and just switch out the bulbs and your set. they look sick when they have blinding hypers on
Munch 02-11-2004, 09:34 PM I'm gonna do the Scion fog lights with a HID conversion to match my headlights :D
xbchance 02-11-2004, 09:41 PM it looks better with them, but they dont do a whole lot when they are turned on.
Agree with Randode, they look great but don't really add that much overall light. :twisted:
ShadowMage 02-11-2004, 09:47 PM I say get the fogs! Like others say it adds to the look.
Just a quick side question...has anyone tried putting yellow bulbs in their fogs lights? If so, how did they look?
CBSIMONSEZ 02-11-2004, 10:09 PM Majority rules, fog lights are a must to make the front end look better, but who wants to pay $260+ for the feature. I saw someone selling a set for $160 on our classifieds, now that i would consider.

I tend to disagree, I have the sylvania bulbs, I think they fill out the headlamp beams nicely...
Jaywade24 02-11-2004, 10:39 PM well I gald we all are on the same page.......I'm kinda surprised the R S 1 doesn't come with the foglights...it seem to come with everything else
o4_USDM_bB 02-11-2004, 10:43 PM i have aftermarket amber foglights installed on mine right now. i put them in the lower grill opening, and i think they look great. i didn't want them for the light output, since they are only foglights. they were $30 at autozone, and i installed them myself. i really wanted them because of the amber light output.
as far as replacing the bulbs with amber ones in the factory foglights, i haven't seen those yet. i think that supreme power is selling some, but those are the first ones that i've ever seen at a decent price. the amber definitely looks hot, especially when you keep the amber turn signals.
i still want to get the factory foglights and rewire them so that they are turn signals instead. i think that bigmex has them like that. my friend pointed it out, but i didn't actually see them in action. the price is the only thing holding me back. i'd rather buy springs or a strut bar or an intake, etc. for that money.

sithscripter 02-11-2004, 10:51 PM The Scion fog lights don't do much in front but they do put out a useful number of photons to the sides. Nice in pitch-dark parking lots or when the city's too broke to fix the streetlights.
Street price is $230 or less and it's an easy install:

Jaywade24 02-12-2004, 06:09 PM well I think most of us are in agreement....the box gotta have the fogs...
CBSIMONSEZ 02-13-2004, 11:32 AM The box needs fogs, but at the tune of $240? I think ill wait for a cheaper sale, got any laying around your shop Jay?
Jaywade24 02-13-2004, 01:37 PM don't I wish....I think we need a brighter blub in the fogs......a little off topic but the first Xb we sold came back by yeterday and he changed his side blinkers to blue....looked pretty good...he playing with his fog light now

Scionpartspeople have some really good prices. I've always wanted to get rid of my add-on sirius and get the OEM one, nows a great time.

Ositopolar 10-04-2006, 03:37 AM I would say the stock foglights to purchase.
