So i am looking into buying after market fog lights for the tC. I don't want the factory one cause it just makes the car look blahhh. I want fog lights that will help illuminate the road without blinding others, has a super or "hyper" white color bulb and fits into the small pockets on the ouside of the bumper right below the headlights. Brand and model numbers and place to purchase would be appreciated.

I am looking for the exact same thing. I want something small and not blue looking. What options are out there??

There was one guy on here who did the is300 fog light retrofit. You might want to try and search for that post. If I remember correctly, he posted some valuable info about the fabrication process and included many pictures.

Saw those and it didn't seem to cosmetically fit the tC. looked out of place IMO.

Glad im not the only one.

I dont think that there are any other fog lights available at the moment for the tC.

Just aftermarket like PIAA or something. Something that will fit into that hole under the headlights. It doesn't have to be exact fit. Just something that fits in there, looks good, lights up the road without blinding others and has super "hyper" white lights. Good price.

The IS300's might not be your cup of tea, but it's certainly not that they look out of place. The holes are exactly the same size as the IS300s are, but upside down, so you need to do some tricky stuff to get them switched without screwing up the cutoff, but once they're installed, they fit the holes just like they fit the IS300. I'm not doing that because it looked like too much work and expense, but if Scion brought out a similar kit, i'd do it in a heartbeat. All the other ones, like the PIAAs and stuff seem to work fine, but it's this little round light poking out of that big hole. I want one where the reflector is the right shape to fit in those holes.

well it's on the it still leaves a gap like the tc with the IS fog

Nakioki

you know PIAA gots other really bright lights out there, ive seen the VP of my club gots smaller fog lights like mines cept BRIGHT! i dont know where he got it.. you might wanna check around. but PIAA lights are really good, they wont disappoint you...

reason i just bought mines cus i was in a tight budget and it only costs me 69$ hehehe... but i like...

bubblemyster

me likes nakioki's.

Nakioki

Not sure how many of you read my post a while back concerning the fog lights. Basically, I broke one (damn rock ) and Toyota had no price for a replacement on the tC. They ended up (after a week!) agreeing to $97, which is on par with the xA and xB replacements I believe, but still expensive. Well, apparently I got lucky, because scion customer care called back the next week and informed me that there was now a price for one light.... $167 !!!!!!! You can buy the whole kit, wiring, grill and all, for $350. So I wouldnt reccomend the factory setup due to that point alone.

bubblemyster

thanks for the heads up engifineer. Now if anyone else wants to contribute to the list I would appreciate. I guess its the PIAA's. They look nice. Hey Nakioki, did you buy your e-bay?

Nakioki

I bought mine in a store called "super autobacs" im pretty sure you heard of it, im pretty sure(again) it gots more location, but this one is located in Garden Grove. You live in bakersfield, i noticed. I passed by there once. on my way to yosemite national park for camping trip during spring break, instead it snowed badly. took my tC up there, the road is amazing. heres some dumb pics.




anyways i dont like ordering stuff like these in ebays, i dont like waiting^^ heheh

bubblemyster

yeah, i hate waiting and some of these guys are fishy. Maybe i'll drive down to garden grove and get something from there. Man, bakersfield is full of fields. LOL. How did it handle in the snow.

engifineer

Cool pics above! Glad someone got some use out of my info above as well. If another of mine breaks, I will replace the entire system with aftermarket.
