Default 06 BOX

We just bought an 06 XB for our son, picked it up Saturday in Killeen, Texas. Started with just the basic, so we can up grade as we go. Has a 5 speed manual, real impressed with the ride and handlebility of the so called "Toaster". Now we start the changes. 1st he wants to do the fog lights, anything out there besides the factory fog lights?

There are not really any fogs out there that I am aware of, unless you go with the generic $20 AutoZone lights.

Welcome!

HA HA--"bought xb for our son" "Now westart the changes" Whose car is it???
Its ok--you are among friends. There are some grills out there that have fog lights incorporated in them. Not sure what you want to pay--but it would be a different look at the same or less money than factory fogs. You can also get the factory fogs for less than list at some dealers that specialize in Scion parts. Good luck to you and your son on your new box!!

Thanks for the come back Old Yeller, Yea it's for my Son, but what can I say, I'm a die hard car buff. Only difference I'm used to old school cars. But this XB has a lot of potential, it appears there is a lot you can do to these Boxers.

Those do look good, but are not really a replacement for functional fog lights, IMO.
